Ingredients

Preparation

  • 1. Grease and lightly flour (buckwheat flour) a 12-inch pizza plate. Set aside.
  • 2. In a large bowl, blend together flours and dry ingredients.
  • 3. Proof yeast in 1 cup warm water with 1 tsp organic sugar.
  • 4. Add the proofed yeast to the flour mixture.
  • 5. Add oil, eggs whites and vinegar and rest of water.
  • 6. Beat the dough until smooth and sticky.
  • 7. The pizza dough should be creamy smooth. It almost borders on batter.
  • 8. Cover bowl and let rise 30 minutes covered with a kitchen towel and placed in a warm spot.
  • 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.
  • 12. Place pizza in oven on center rack.
  • 13. Bake 10 minutes or until lightly browned.
  • 14. Remove from oven and place on a kitchen rack to let cool.
  • 15. Repeat procedure with second dough half.
  • 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.
