Directions

Basically this is a recipe for pizza dough and a suggestion but only a suggestion for the topping. Like any pizza, the toppings can be creative. Just make sure you’re not sneaking a bunch of mozzarella, sausage and pepperoni into God’s pizza or you will surely be struck down.

Combine the yeast with the sugar and warm water in a large mixing bowl and set aside until bubbles rise to the surface, about 5 minutes.

Whirl the oats in a food processor until they are the consistency of coarse flour. When the yeast is thoroughly dissolved and frothy, about 7 to 10 minutes, add the oat flour, whole wheat flour, oil, slat, and enough of the white flour to make a stiff dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 to 7 minutes, until smith and elastic, adding the remaining flour as needed.

Lightly oil or spray a large bowl. Place the dough in it, turn it once to coast, cover it with a damp towel, and allow to rise in a warm spot for about 30 minutes, or until doubled in size. While the dough is rising, make the topping.

Preheat oven to 450°. And prepare a 12 inch pizza pan with cooking spray. Punch down the dough, turn it out onto a lightly floured work surface, and knead for about 1 minute. Using your hands or a rolling pin, stretch the dough into a large circle. Place the dough on the pizza pan and continue stretching it until it covers the pan. Using your fingers, make a slightly thicker edge of crust around the perimeter of the pan. Very lightly spray or oil the dough and allow it to rise in a warm place for 10 minutes.

Make topping
Mix all the topping ingredients but feta in a bowl .. Evenly spread the topping on the dough, top with feta and bake for about 15 minutes until the dough is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
