No Knead Pizza Dough Whole Wheat
In a large glass bowl mix flours, salt and yeast. Slowly add in water, staring with 1.5 cups until dough is relatively sticky and wet. If the dough is on the dry side, add more water (I used 1.75 cups which was a bit too much. I think the sweet spot is probably 1.5 cups + 1 to 2 tablespoons).
Scrape down sides of bowl, cover with saran wrap, and place bowl in a warm spot. Let dough sit for 8 hours or up to 12 hours. The longer fermentation, the more complex the flavor is (I let mine sit for 8 hours).
When rise is done, dust your hands with a little bit of all purpose flour and fold the dough over in the bowl a couple of times. Don't use too much flour and use a gentle touch with the dough.
Divide the dough into two.
Preheat oven to 500F. Grab a baking sheet and measure 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil. Spread evenly with a pastry brush.
Grab one half of the dough and gently stretch using your fingers. Be careful not to tear holes in the dough. Place onto baking sheet and continue stretching until desired thickness achieved. This is what size mine looks like.
Pour an additional 1/2 tablespoon olive oil on top of dough and spread with pastry brush.
Using 3 ounces of grated cheese, sprinkle about 2 ounces and set aside 1 ounce.
Grab 4 of the whole, peeled tomatoes and use your hands to crush over the pizza (or use a knife on a cutting board). Squeeze them so the juice is evenly distributed. Finally, sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon black pepper, pinch garlic powder, pinch crushed red pepper flakes and remaining 1 ounce grated mozzarella.
Place into oven and cook 12 to 14 minutes or until crust and cheese are golden. Allow to cool 2 to 3 minutes and cut into 4 slices. Serve immediately and Enjoy!
