    great pizza dough-filling and tasty. A little time consuming but worth it. Did not burn, char or become chewy. I made it as one pizza not singles. Cooked in a preheated 450 oven near the bottom of the oven on a perforated pizza pan on top of a pizza stone (also preheated. AAAAA+++++

    Great recipe! The taste was nice and the whole wheat was undiscernible. That's a plus in my house. I baked the pizza on a hot pizza stone. The crust was thin and crispy. Yum!
