Spelt Pizza Dough image

The 'ancient grain' spelt is related to modern wheat, but it's actually an entirely different species. From what I hear, it's easier to digest, higher in protein and fiber, and to me at least, has a much better flavor and texture than other whole-wheat flours. Top with favorite pizza toppings!

Time 2h35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 cups sprouted spelt flour, or as needed, divided
1 cup warm water (100 to 105 degrees F/38 to 41 degrees C)
2 teaspoons honey
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Whisk 1 cup flour, water, honey, and yeast together in a bowl. Let stand until yeast softens and mixture is bubbly, about 20 minutes.
  • Stir remaining flour, olive oil, and salt into yeast mixture. Beat mixture in a bowl with an electric mixer fitted with a dough hook attachment, adding more flour as necessary, until a soft and tacky dough forms, 3 to 4 minutes. Place dough in mixing bowl with a little olive oil, cover bowl with a plate, and let rise until doubled in size, 90 minutes.
  • Punch dough down and transfer to a lightly floured work surface. Divide into 4 balls; cover each and let rest until dough rises slightly, 30 to 45 minutes. Roll into desired shapes and thickness.

I wouldn't recommend this pizza dough recipe. The dough was difficult to work with and the pizza turned out dry and tasteless.

This pizza dough was easy to make, but it didn't rise as much as I expected. The pizza turned out a bit flat.

I found this pizza dough to be a bit too dense for my taste, but it still had a good flavor.

I love that this recipe uses spelt flour. It gives the pizza dough a slightly nutty flavor that I really enjoy.
