Method
 

Making the Pizza Dough
  1. Making the Pizza Dough In a large bowl, add the whole wheat flour, salt, sugar, yeast and mix altogether. Add 3 tablespoons of Olive oil, and start mixing with the dry ingredients.
  2. Gradually start adding the lukewarm water, bit by bit, to the rest of the ingredients and mix until you start forming a dough. Be careful not to over add water as the dough will become
  3. Add a little bit of olive oil to your hands and knead the dough for a few minutes.
  4. Once you have formed the dough cover with a cloth and allow to rest for 25 minutes
  5. After your dough has rested, divide into 2 pizza baking pans (I normally use one medium and 1 small pizza pan for this quantity)
  6. Divide the dough into 2 balls as per each pan size, then grease your dishes with a bit of olive oil and begin flattening the dough with your hands, starting in the center and working outwards
  7. Brush the top of your dough with a little olive oil, allow to rest for 5-10 minutes. Transfer your pans to a preheated oven and allow to cook for 5 minutes before adding the sauce and building your pizza.
Build your Pizza
  1. Remove the dough from the oven, and generously spread your homemade sauce evenly.
