- 9. Divide dough in half. Place each half onto the center of prepared pizza pan.
- 10. Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
- 11. Using your hands and a dusting of buckwheat flour, working from the center outward and press dough down creating an even pizza shell with a slightly raised edge.

- 16. Additional notes
- 17. I find it better to completly bake pizza crust before putting your toppings. This will prevent pizza crust from becoming soaky. After I put topping, I lightly brushed exposed edges with olive oil.
