Ingredients

  • Pizza Dough:
  • 3 cups spelt flour
  • 6 1/2 tablespoons spelt flour
  • 1 tablespoon instant yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • olive oil, divided, or as needed
  • 1 cup lukewarm water
  • Pizza Sauce:
  • 1/2 onion, finely diced
  • 3 cups tomato puree
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil, or to taste
  • 1 2/3 (16 ounce) packages mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • salt to taste
  • olive oil, divided, or as needed

Directions

  1. 1
    Sift 3 cups plus 6 1/2 tablespoons flour, yeast, and 1 teaspoon salt together in a bowl. Pour 1 tablespoon olive oil into a bowl with lukewarm water; mix into the dough at a steady rate, kneading with your hands until elastic.
  2. 2
    Transfer dough to a bowl lightly greased with 1 1/2 teaspoons oil and cover with a towel. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 1/2 hours.
  3. 3
    Punch down dough; cover again and let rise, 30 to 45 minutes more.
  4. 4
    Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a pot over medium heat. Cook onion, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add tomato puree and garlic; toss in basil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until simmering, about 4 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook until flavors blend, about 15 minutes more. Reduce heat to low.
  5. 5
    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 2 baking sheets with remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil.
  6. 6
    Roll each dough half into a pizza crust, pinching up the edges of the dough if you like. Spoon sauce generously onto the pizzas, covering them completely. Divide mozzarella cheese between the pizzas.
  7. 7
    Bake in the preheated oven, enjoying the romance of a secluded kitchen together, until mozzarella cheese is melted golden brown and the bottom of the pizza is browned, 10 to 20 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes before enjoying together.
