Pizza Dough from bon appetit
You can also use this versatile dough to make pizza dough, buns, or foccacia-style bread.
(Makes two 12-15 inch pizza crusts)
3 cups 100% whole wheat flour
1 tsp sugar
2 tsp salt
2 tbsp olive oil
1 packet active yeast
3 tbsp vital wheat gluten
1 - 1.5 cups warm water (about 100F)
Into a food processor bowl add all the dry ingredients.
With the motor running, first add the oil and then the water. It helps if you add the water in small amounts, literally let it trickle in.
You may need to push down any ingredients that may stick to the sides of a bowl.
Run the food processor till the dough all comes together and moves around as one entity. Transfer the dough to a work area and keep kneading till you get a soft and smooth dough.
Transfer the dough into a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a wet towel and place it in a warm place. The dough will double in about 2-3 hours.
At this point you could punch down the dough and let it rise once more. Preheat the oven to 400F.
Gently knead the dough once more. Spread the dough in a lightly oiled 13x9 pan. Let it rest for 10-15 minutes. Drizzle olive oil and sprinkle some salt.
Bake for about 15-20 minutes (time will vary for each oven) till the bread is brownish-reddish. Remove from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes.
