  • 1 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 325 grams hard white wheat
  • 8 oz mild cheddar cheese ((shredded))
  • 2 cups browned sausage ((pork or breakfast sausage))
  • 4 oz pepperoni
  • 6 oz tomato paste
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil

  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1--- Directions: ---
  2. 2mill flour: Weigh the grain and mill into flour.
  3. 3proof yeast: In the bowl of a stand mixer whisk together the warm water, yeast, honey, olive oil, and salt. Allow the yeast to bloom for 5 minutes.
  4. 4knead pizza dough: Add the flour and knead over low speed for 25 minutes. I kneaded it on Speed 2 in my Kitchen-Aid mixer. The dough will be sticky. Rest for 1 hour covered in a greased bowl.
  5. 5make pizza sauce: Meanwhile, combine the pizza sauce ingredients. I had to reheat my frozen tomato paste so I warmed it in a saucepan but you can mix everything together in a bowl.
  6. 6prepare and roll out the crust: Preheat the oven to 450°F. Transfer the dough to a cornmeal-dusted surface and roll the dough out to a 16-inch circle. Transfer to a lightly greased pizza pan
  7. 7top with toppings and bake: Top the crust with all the pizza sauce, cheese, pepperoni, and sausage. Bake for 10 minutes on the bottom rack of the oven. Slice and serve.
