Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
• 0.5 cups Spelt flour
• 0.5 cups Oat flour
• 3 tablespoons Cornmeal
• 1 tablespoon Flaxseeds
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Sugar
• 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
• 0.75 cups Warm water (about 110°F/43°C)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for 5–10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, spelt flour, oat flour, cornmeal, flaxseeds, and salt.

Step 3

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the yeast mixture and olive oil.

Step 4

Mix the ingredients with a wooden spoon or spatula until a sticky dough forms.

Step 5

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 8–10 minutes, adding a little extra flour if necessary, until the dough is smooth and elastic.

Step 6

Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for 1–1.5 hours or until doubled in size.

Step 7

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat up.

Step 8

Punch down the risen dough and divide it into two equal portions for two medium-sized crusts (or keep it whole for one large crust).

Step 9

Roll out the dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness and transfer it to a piece of parchment paper for easy sliding onto the pizza stone or baking sheet.

Step 10

Top the crust with your favorite pizza sauce, cheese, and toppings of choice.

Step 11

Carefully transfer the pizza (along with the parchment paper) to the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet.

Step 12

Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 13

Remove the pizza from the oven, slice, and serve hot. Enjoy your delicious and nutritious multigrain pizza!
