Spelt is an ancient grain that's related to modern wheat, but it's actually an entirely different species. From what I hear, it's easier to digest, higher in protein and fiber, and to me at least, it has a much better flavor and texture than other whole wheat flours.

Something went wrong. Our team is working on it. Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings 3 cups sprouted spelt flour, or as needed, divided 1 cup warm water (100 to 105 degrees F/38 to 41 degrees C) 2 teaspoons honey 1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for oiling the bowl 1 teaspoon kosher salt Directions Whisk 1 cup flour, water, honey, and yeast together in a bowl. Let stand until yeast softens and mixture is bubbly, about 20 minutes. Stir remaining 2 cups flour, olive oil, and salt into yeast mixture. Beat in a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook attachment, adding more flour as necessary, until a soft and tacky dough forms, 3 to 4 minutes. Place dough into an oiled mixing bowl, cover the bowl with a plate, and let rise until doubled in volume, 90 minutes. Punch dough down and transfer to a lightly floured work surface. Divide into four equal balls. Cover each ball and let rest until dough rises slightly, 30 to 45 minutes. John Mitzewich Chef's Note To use: Roll dough out to desired thickness, top with desired sauce and toppings, then cook as directed in your pizza recipe. I Made It Print 65 home cooks made it!
