HEALTH & BENEFITS

Although pizza dough isn’t exactly a health food, this recipe uses high-quality, unprocessed ingredients that are less likely to cause digestive issues than many store-bought pizza crusts. Honey is a natural source of antioxidants and fungal-fighting compounds, while kosher salt is lower in sodium and comes with fewer additives than table salt.

	1 1/2 cups bread flour
	1 1/3 cups room temp water
	1 teaspoon yeast
	1 1/2 - 1 3/4 cups bread flour
	1 tablespoon honey
	1 teaspoon yeast
	1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
