Favorite Deep-Dish Pizza
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. Bake: 20 min.
YIELD: 8 servings.
My kids love to get pizza delivered, but it's expensive and not very healthy. I came up with a one-bowl pizza that is healthier than delivery and allows the kids to add the toppings of their choice. —Sara LaFountain, Rockville, Maryland

1-3/4 cups whole wheat flour

1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour

2 packages (1/4 ounce each) quick-rise yeast

1-1/2 cups warm water (120° to 130°)

1.
In a large bowl, combine wheat flour, 1 cup all-purpose flour, yeast, sugar and salt. Add water and oil; beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. Press dough onto the bottom and up the sides of a greased 13x9-in. baking dish.
