Delicious and filling, you'll love this simple whole wheat pizza dough recipe! Easily made in a stand mixer, food processor, or by hand, this homemade vegan pizza dough is fool-proof and sure to become a family favorite.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, dissolve the yeast in the warm water, add other ingredients, and mix for 2-5 min on low until the dough has cleaned the sides of the bowl.
Remove the dough and drizzle a bit of olive oil around the edges of the mixing bowl, and coat all sides of the dough with the oil.
Cover with a warm damp kitchen towel, and allow the dough to rise until doubled (time will depend on the temp of your kitchen).
To Bake the Pizza
Preheat the oven to 425F degrees. Place a pizza stone in the oven while it preheats.
Sprinkle cornmeal on the hot pan, and spread the dough around with your hands or a rolling pin.
Cover with your preferred toppings. Bake until the cheese is hot and bubbling (usually 15-20 minutes). Check and rotate at 10 minutes.
Notes
Need to use all-purpose flour? The measurements above remain the same but exclude the vital wheat gluten.
If your kitchen is on the cool side, you can preheat your oven to 200 degrees F and then turn it off. Place the bowl in the oven for 20-30 minutes until doubled in size. You can also add a bit of olive oil to an Instant Pot and proof it with a glass lid on the yogurt setting for 10-15 minutes.
You can also mix pizza dough by hand or use the dough blade in a food processor.
