Preparation facts

Cooking Time: 15 minutes

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Total Time: 1 hr 40 min

Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients

Dough:

1 Tbs (10g) active dry yeast

1/2 cup (120mL) warm water

1 Tbs (15mL) olive oil

2 tsp (10mL) honey or brown rice syrup

1/2 tsp (3g) salt

1 1/2 cups (180g) unbleached flour

Topping:

1 Tbs (15mL) olive oil

2 Tbs (6g) minced fresh sage

1 sweet onion, thinly sliced

Directions

In a large mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water and let stand 5 minutes. Add oil, honey or brown rice syrup, and salt. Stir in enough flour to make a stiff dough. Knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Cover dough and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Punch down dough with your fist. On a floured surface, roll out dough to fit a baking sheet or pizza pan. Press dough into pan and make indentations with your fingers. Cover and let rise 10 minutes.

Mix oil, sage and onion and spread on top of dough. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve hot.
