Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups spelt flour about 185 grams
- 1 Tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- ½ cup unsweetened applesauce
- ⅔ - 1 cup warm water
Instructions
- Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
- Stir in the applesauce until the mixture looks pebbly.
- Add in the water slowly, until the dough comes together. It should be neither too dry nor too sticky to the touch.
- Knead until the dough is a smooth ball, about 2-3 minutes.
- Cover the dough with the same bowl you used to mix the ingredients, letting it sit while your oven warms and you begin your topping prep.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- After 10 minutes, divide the dough into two balls (don't knead it), and roll out each ball to fit your pizza pan.
- Pre-bake the crusts for four minutes.
- Remove the crusts, top with sauce, veggies, and/or cheese, and bake for 8-10 more minutes (I put one on the top rack and one on the bottom rack, bake for six minutes, then switch them around) or until toppings are baked through.
- Remove, cool, slice, and enjoy!
