Oven at 425f (232C)

Mix whole wheat flour
with all-purpose flour and keep aside.
In a large pot, combine
yeast , honey, 4 tsp warm water and set aside for 10 min. (This step is very important as yeast forms
quickly in warm sweet water)
Add salt, oil, rest of
warm water, 1 cup of flour and mix lightly. (Make
sure to knead lightly as putting too much pressure will flatten/harden the
pizza base when baked)
Add rest of the flour
and make into loose dough.
Grease a pot, put the
dough, cover with wet cloth & keep for 1hr.
Dough double in size,
turn on board, cut in 4 balls, put wet cloth and keep in warm place for 40 min.
The dough balls will
rise further, roll each of them into
round pizza base.
Now apply olive oil on
each pizza base followed by ketchup sauce.
Place Tomato rings on
each pizza base, sprinkle cheeses, basil leaves, garlic powder and salt.
Place 2 pizza on each
tray (Lined with aluminum foil).
Put tray in bottom of
the oven bake in 450degree for 5 min and then shift to middle rack for 5-6 min.
Take out the pizza, run
a pizza slicer to cut into desired slices and Serve Hot.
