Vegetable Pizza


It’s Pizza party time ., yes weekend is our Pizza party time. This time for a change, I used 50% APF and 50% Wheat flour. And for my surprise ,my elder son loved it so much.  Happy weekend to all!
Ingredients:

  • APF – 1 and ½ cup
  • Wheat flour – 1 and ½ cup
  • Rapid rising yeast – 2 tsp
  • Honey or sugar – 1 tsp
  • Water – 1 cup
  • Oil – 2 tsp
  • Pizza sauce – for spreading
  • Mozzarella cheese grated – 1 cup
  • Vegetables – for toppings
  • Salt to taste.

Procedure:

  1. In a Luke warm water add yeast, sugar and wait for 10 minutes or until yeast forms a frothy layer.
  2. In a mixing bowl add APF, wheat flour, yeast mixture, salt and oil.  Add yeast mixture little by little and make dough.
  3. Cover the dough with wet cloth and let it rest for 1 hour in a warm place.
  4. After one hour dough must have doubled in size, now punch dough and release air from the dough.
  5. Using a rolling pin, make a thick circle. Dough will be sticky, can dust with APF to make a circle.
  6. Then rest the dough for another 30 minutes, the dough will rise again.
  7. Next preheat the oven at 350 degree F.
  8. Apply Pizza sauce over the pizza and spread out the veggies.
  9. Then grate mozzarella cheese over the veggies and bake it until the crust turns brown and the cheese melts.
  10. Serve it hot with tomato ketchup.
