2 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 tsp fine sea salt
Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, plus more for the bowl

Instructions

1
Combine the warm water, yeast, and honey in a large mixing bowl and stir briefly. Let stand for 5–8 minutes, until the surface is foamy and the mixture smells yeasty.
2
Add the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, salt, and 2 tbsp olive oil to the yeast mixture. Stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms, then turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 6–8 minutes, until the dough is smooth, slightly tacky, and springs back slowly when poked.
