Homemade Whole Wheat Pizza
Thanks Veronica for making me a contributor to this blog! I've thought about doing a recipe blog before - since so many people do it, and it looks fun.... but I barely keep up with my own non-food blogging! So this is perfect - I can just do recipe posts whenever!
- 1 1/2 cups warm water
- 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tsp honey (or you could use sugar)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 1/4 cups cups whole wheat flour (preferably whole wheat pastry flour, but either works fine)
-
Put the honey in the warm water. Sprinkle the yeast over the top, and let stand for about 10 minutes, until foamy.
Stir the olive oil and salt into the yeast mixture, then pour it into a breadmachine and add the whole wheat flour.
Select dough cycle or pizza dough cycle. (takes about 1 hour)
Preheat the oven to 425. Roll a ball of dough with a rolling pin until it will not stretch any further. Then, drape it over both of your fists, and gently pull the edges outward, while rotating the crust. When the circle has reached the desired size, place on a nonstick sprayed pizza pan.
Cook dough for 8 minutes.
Add toppings - we usually do tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, whatever meat we have around, bell peppers and/or whatever other veggies we have.
Bake for about 10 minutes (depending on thickness) in the preheated oven, until the crust is crisp and golden at the edges, and cheese is melted on the top.

Banana Bread
- 2 C. flour
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- pinch of salt
- 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
- pinch of nutmeg
- 1/2 C. shortening
- 3/4 C. brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 2 over-ripened bananas
Combine first five ingredients. In a separate bowl, beat together shortening, sugar, eggs, vanilla and bananas. Combine both mixtures just until moistened. Pour into greased loaf pan.
Bake in a 350* oven for 60-65 minutes, or until tooth pic comes out clean. Cool in pan for 15 minutes, then remove and serve.
Note: if loaf starts to brown too quickly, cover loosely with foil.
I am not usually a fan of bananas or banana bread for that matter, but this recipe has just the right amount. It's best fresh, but it also tastes great toasted with butter.
