Pizza Dough Recipe.

Ingredients:

3/4 cup warm water
1 1/2 TSPs maple syrup
1 (1/4-ounce) package active dry yeast
1 cup white whole-wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 TSP sea salt
1 TBSP plus 1 TSP extra-virgin olive oil

Recipe Instructions:

In a small bowl, stir together the water, maple syrup, and the yeast.
Set aside for 5 minutes, until the yeast is foamy.
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, place the flours and salt.
Mix on medium speed until combined.
Add the yeast mixture and 1 TBSP of the olive oil.
Mix on medium speed until the dough forms into a ball around the hook, 5 to 6 minutes.
If the dough is too dry to form a ball, add water 1/2 TBSP at a time until the mixture comes together.
If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead into a smooth ball.
Brush a large bowl with the remaining 1 TSP of olive oil and place the dough inside.
Cover with plastic wrap and set aside to rise until the dough has doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface.
Stretch to fit a 14-inch pizza pan.
Cover and let the stretched dough rest for 10 minutes.
Bake according to the pizza recipe you are using, typically 10 to12 minutes in a 500? degrees oven, or until the crust is browned.
