Ingredients
- 120 grams Sourdough starter (active and bubbly)
- 250 grams All-purpose flour
- 50 grams Whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 150 milliliters Warm water
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil (extra virgin, optional for richness)
- 150 grams Tomato sauce (low-fat)
- 100 grams Low-fat mozzarella cheese (grated)
- 150 grams Vegetable toppings (e.g., bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, spinach)
- 5 leaves Fresh basil (for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sourdough starter, all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, and salt.
Step 2
Slowly add the warm water, mixing with your hands or a spatula until a sticky dough forms. If the dough feels too dry, add a little more water, 1 tablespoon at a time.
Step 3
Knead the dough lightly on a floured surface for about 5 minutes, then shape it into a ball and place it back in the bowl. Cover with a damp cloth and allow it to rest for 3 hours at room temperature to ferment and rise.
Step 4
Preheat your oven to 250°C (480°F) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet in the middle rack to heat up.
Step 5
Punch down the dough to release any air bubbles and divide it into two equal portions. Roll each portion into a thin pizza crust on a lightly floured surface.
Step 6
Transfer one crust to a sheet of parchment paper for easier handling. Spread half of the tomato sauce evenly over the crust, leaving a 1 cm border around the edges.
Step 7
Sprinkle half of the low-fat mozzarella cheese over the sauce and layer with your choice of vegetable toppings.
Step 8
Carefully slide the pizza (with the parchment paper) onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and crisp, and the cheese is melted.
Step 9
Repeat the process for the second pizza.
Step 10
Garnish each pizza with fresh basil leaves before serving. Slice and enjoy!
