In reply to Melinda Meyerhoff. Hi Melinda, bake pizza on the lower rack. This will ensure it browns on the bottom.

In reply to Sally Allen-Smith. Hi Sally, you could use a gluten free 1:1 mix in this dough.

Can I mix the dough by hand? I don’t have a food processor.

Thank you for your (mostly) gluten free options when necessary. What would you suggest for pizza dough using gluten-free flour. I don’t have a choice; it is either use gluten-free flour or don’t make your dough. Again, thank you for helping me stay healthy at 85.

In reply to BA. Hi there, white whole wheat flour is a 100% whole grain flour made from hard white wheat instead of traditional red wheat. Whole wheat pastry flour is milled differently, and is best in recipes that rely on baking soda or baking powder rather than yeast. It doesn't have as strong of gluten, so isn't great for breads.

In reply to Kate. Kate is correct. I make homemade pizzas all the time and cook them at 500°F on a pizza stone in my oven. Now that I've seen Kate's grilling recommendation, I'll give that a try. But do not be hesitant about the temp...pizzas need to be baked in high heat.

I am having a hard time understanding the term “white whole wheat flour” as a product, thought it was either/or not both/and. Why would whole wheat pastry flour not work? Thanks/

Wonderful recipe; the fastest pizza I have ever made! My first time ever using instant yeast (usually use regular yeast or sourdough starter). The crust was amazing! I used what I had–whole grain spelt flour and unbleached. For my personal preference, next time I think I will use half the honey and let the dough sit for 10 minutes (the second pizza was fluffier), but everyone loved it as is and it was a big hit! Thank you, again!
