Pizza!

We've made this pizza a bunch of times, and thought it was about time to document it.

Pizza Dough:
A few tablespoons of honey
A drizzle or three of olive oil
Seasoned salt
Garlic powder
Onion powder
1 cup warm/hot water
1 packet yeast
3 cups flower (this time we used 2 cups white, 1 cup whole wheat)

Directions: Add the yeast packet to one cup warm/hot water. Mix and let stand a few minutes. While waiting for the yeast, combine honey, olive oil, salt, garlic powder, onion powder. Add water/yeast mixture and stir until evenly mixed. Add flour, 1 cup at a time. Knead the dough for a few minutes. Makes enough for 2 medium pizzas, or one large and one small.


Toppings:
Pizza sauce
Red/yellow pepper
Kalamata olives
Mozzarella cheese
Goat cheese
Fresh basil
Caramelized onions

Directions: Cook onions covered on med/low heat with olive oil and brown sugar until tender, uncover and cook on med/high for a couple minutes to reduce and brown.


Pizza Directions: Preheat pizza stone in oven for ~20 minutes at 450F while preparing the dough and onions. Once everything is ready, pull out the stone, lay the dough on the stone, and top quickly! The dough will start to cook as soon as it touches the hot stone. Place back in oven and cook for 7-8 minutes. Enjoy!
