Makes 10 Slices
Crust:
¾ cup Whole Wheat Flour
¾ cup AP Flour
1 package Fast Acting Yeast
¼ tsp Salt
¼ tsp Sugar
2/3 cup Hot Water
2 tsp Olive Oil
Sauce:
3 oz Tomato Paste
4 oz Tomato Sauce
½ tsp Sugar
¼ tsp Salt
¼ tsp Black Pepper
½ tsp Oregano
½ tsp Garlic Powder
1 Tbsp Olive Oil
Toppings:
6 oz Canadian Bacon, chopped
¼ cup Bell Peppers, chopped
¼ cup Onion, chopped
1 cup Mozzarella Cheese
¼ cup Parmesan Cheese
Directions: In a large mixing bowl mix the whole wheat flour, AP flour, salt, and sugar, and yeast. Add hot water and olive oil. Stir well. Knead dough for about 3-4 minutes. Cover to let rise for 10 minutes.
While the dough is rising prepare your sauce and toppings. In a small bowl add together all ingredients for sauce and stir well. If you haven’t already done so, chop your toppings.
Roll out the pizza dough to fit a large baking tray (11” x 14”). Spread with the sauce. Top with Canadian bacon, peppers, onion, and cheese.
Bake at 425 F for 15-17 minutes or until cheese is melted in the middle and crust is slightly brown.
You can also use gluten-free flour as a substitute for the whole wheat and AP flours.
Other low Calorie toppings may include:
Chopped garlic, tomatoes, mushrooms, olives, artichokes, and fresh basil.
Other protein toppings may include (to substitute for Canadian bacon):
Pepperoni, cooked ground beef, grilled chicken.
