    Directions:

    Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.

    Combine 2 cups whole wheat flour, yeast and salt in large mixing bowl. Add water and vegetable oil to flour mixture. Stir until ingredients are blended. Stir in enough remaining all-purpose flour until dough forms a ball and pulls away from sides of the bowl.

    Knead dough in bowl or on lightly floured surface about 4 to 6 minutes or until dough is smooth and elastic.

    Divide into four even pieces, shape into smooth balls. Place bowl over dough pieces and allow to rest 10 minutes.

    Prepare topping.

    Lightly oil baking sheets. Sprinkle with cornmeal. Use hands to pat dough pieces into flat round crusts on baking sheets so they are not touching. Allow dough to rest if needed. Pinch to form an edge. Sprinkle crust with garlic powder.

    Select toppings. For one personal pan pizza, spread 1/4 can sauce over crust. Top with one-fourth of meat, and one tablespoon of each vegetable topping and 1/4 cup shredded cheese.

    Bake for 20-25 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
