Ingredients

• 200 ml Warm water
• 1 tsp Active dry yeast
• 300 g All-purpose flour
• 50 g Whole wheat flour
• 1 tsp Salt
• 1 tsp Honey
• 1 tbsp Olive oil
• 150 g Low-fat mozzarella cheese
• 150 ml Tomato sauce
• 10 pieces Fresh basil leaves
• 10 pieces Cherry tomatoes
• 1 tsp Oregano

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine 200 ml of warm water with 1 tsp of active dry yeast and let it sit for 5 minutes until it foams.

Step 2

Add 1 tsp of honey and 1 tbsp of olive oil to the yeast mixture.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, mix 300 g of all-purpose flour, 50 g of whole wheat flour, and 1 tsp of salt.

Step 4

Gradually add the flour mixture to the yeast mixture and knead the dough for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Step 5

Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 60 minutes or until it doubles in size.

Step 6

Once the dough has risen, preheat your oven to its highest setting (around 250°C or 482°F) and place a pizza stone or baking tray inside to heat.

Step 7

Punch down the dough and divide it into two equal portions. Roll each portion out into thin, round pizza bases.

Step 8

Spread 75 ml of tomato sauce over each base, leaving a small border around the edges.

Step 9

Slice the cherry tomatoes and scatter them evenly over the pizzas.

Step 10

Sprinkle 75 g of low-fat mozzarella cheese over each pizza.

Step 11

Add fresh basil leaves and 1 tsp of oregano over the pizzas for seasoning.

Step 12

Carefully transfer the pizzas onto the preheated pizza stone or baking tray and bake them for about 8-10 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.

Step 13

Remove from the oven, slice, and serve immediately.
