Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups warm water (105–110 degrees F)
- 1 envelope rapid rise yeast
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 ¼ cups white whole wheat flour
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, plus more as needed
Instructions
- Combine warm water, yeast, honey, and salt in a small bowl. Let stand until foamy, about 3-5 minutes.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a dough attachment, mix the white whole wheat flour, olive oil, and water mixture at medium speed until well combined.
- Gradually add all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until a soft, smooth ball of dough forms. The dough should feel elastic and slightly tacky to the touch. Increase the speed to medium-high and beat for 5 minutes.
- Lightly oil a large bowl or coat it with nonstick spray. Place the dough in the bowl, turning to coat it. Cover with a clean dishtowel and let stand at room temperature until the dough has doubled in size, about 30-45 minutes.
Notes
- For best results, ensure your water is the correct temperature to activate the yeast.
- Allow the dough to rest after kneading to improve its elasticity.
