This is a quick and easy homemade pizza dough recipe using wholegrain spelt flour. This cheat's pizza dough requires no bulk fermentation and is yeast-free. The dough is vegetarian and vegan. Make the dough in under 30 minutes. Enjoy the pizza with your favourite sauces, cheeses and toppings.
In a large mixing bowl assemble and mix together the spelt flour, baking powder, sea salt , olive oil and warm water
Begin kneading the dough by hand or using a stand mixer for a few minutes until it all comes together in a round mass. Let it sit for 10 minutes
As the dough is resting for 10 min, prep the toppings, cheese and pasta sauce (see the simple Basil pesto sauce below)
Divide the dough into 2 balls. Then using a rolling pin, roll out the dough to make a circular shape the size of your cast iron skillet / pan.
Put together the rolled dough onto the cast iron pan and evenly spread the pasta sauce, cheese and toppings of your choice.
Then bake in a pre-heated oven for 8-10 minutes at 230 deg centigrade. Keep checking the oven to ensure the pizza base is not getting burnt as different ovens have different heating times.
Repeat the process with the second half of the dough ball to bake the second pizza.
