Dough
Ingredients
- 1 pkg yeast
- 1 Tbsp sugar
- 1 cup warm water
- 1 tsp salt
- 3 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 ¾ cup white flour
- 1 ¼ cup whole wheat flour
Combine yeast, sugar and warm water and let set for 5 minutes. Mix remaining ingredients and then add yeast mixture. Let dough rise, in a warm place, for about 1-2 hours, until double in size.
Roll out a small portion of the dough at a time, cutting two equal sized hearts. Fill middle with filling, thin layer marinara sauce, turkey pepperoni, cheese, and then crimp edges with a fork. Set on baking tray. Bake at 400 for 10-15 minutes until lightly browned. Test to make sure dough is done baking. Serve with marinara sauce for dipping.
