Pizza Crust
Made with Fresh Milled Flour
by Wheat Berries & Butter
We have used this recipe for over a decade and have now converted it to fresh milled flour. It is incredibly tasty and makes great pizza for our family nights.
Level: Easy
Serving size: Depends on thickness of the crust, about 3 10-inch pizzas or 1 large pizza
Prep: 5-10 minutes to prep dough, plus rise time, 20 minutes to roll out and prep pizzas
Baking Temperature: 400° on a griddle
Bake time: 7 minutes for small pizzas, 15+ minutes for larger pizza
​
Ingredients:
1 cup warm water
1 tsp. honey
2.25 tsp. Instant yeast
390 g (3 cups) fresh milled flour (all hard white, or ½ kamut and ½ hard white)
1 3/4 tsp salt
2 tbsp olive oil
​
For pizza:
Sauce of your choice (pizza sauce, marinara, garlic and oil, alfredo sauce)
Toppings of your choice (meats, veggies, cheeses)
Directions:
-
Autolyse flour and water for about an hour. (Longer is fine, 20 minutes is sufficient if you need to hurry.)

Allow the dough to rest until it doubles.
-
Roll out crust sizes of your choice. Makes three small crusts or one large crust.

Bake small pizzas at 400° for 7 minutes and larger pizza for 15 minutes, checking for browning before removing from the oven. Exact cook times will depend on thickness of the crust.
