How to Make Whole Wheat Pizza Crust Fleischmann

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. For extra crispiness, place the dough on a baking rack positioned directly on the oven shelf.
  3. In a large bowl, dissolve 1 teaspoon of sugar in 1/2 cup (120ml) warm water (105-115°F). Add 2 1/4 teaspoons (1 packet) of Fleischmann's active dry yeast and let stand for 5 minutes until foamy.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups (190g) whole wheat flour, 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour, and 1 teaspoon salt.
  5. Pour the yeast mixture and 2 tablespoons of corn oil into the flour mixture.
  6. Mix with a wooden spoon or knead by hand for 3 minutes until a shaggy dough forms.
  7. Lightly oil a large bowl. Place the dough in the bowl, turning to coat. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.
  8. Gently punch down the dough. Divide it in half for two crusts.
  9. **To freeze:** Wrap dough tightly in plastic wrap and then foil, freezing for up to one month. **To thaw:** Thaw in the refrigerator for 8-12 hours or at room temperature for 2-3 hours. No additional rising is needed after thawing.
  10. Roll out dough to your desired thinness and shape. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
