Ingredients

  • For dough
  • 2/3 cup warm water
  • 1/2 teaspoon dry active yeast
  • 1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil plus more for bowl
  • 1 cup bread flour plus more for work surface
  • 1/2 cup whole-wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • For toppings
  • 1 ear corn
  • 1 small red bell pepper cut into 3-inch wide strips
  • 1 small yellow bell pepper cut into 3-inch wide strips
  • 1 small zucchini cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices
  • 1/2 small red onion sliced 1/4-inch-thick
  • 1 small head broccoli trimmed and split into large florets
  • 3/4 cup grape tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup tomato sauce
  • 1/2 cup finely shredded Italian cheese blend

Instructions

  • For the dough, combine the water, yeast, sugar and olive oil and let stand for 5 minutes until foamy. In a large bowl, mix together the flour and salt. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir until it forms a shaggy dough.  Turn the dough onto a lightly floured work surface and knead for 10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic. (Alternatively, the dough can be mixed in the bowl of a stand mixer using a dough hook.)
  • Gather the dough into a ball, transfer to an oiled bowl and cover. Place the bowl in a warm spot to allow the dough to rise until it has doubled in size, about 2 hours.
  • Preheat a gas or charcoal grill on high heat.
  • On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the dough into an 8-inch by 12-inch rectangle.
  • Toss the vegetables in olive oil, salt and pepper.
  • Grill the corn, turning occasionally, until lightly charred, about 5-7 minutes. Grill the peppers, zucchini, onions and broccoli until grilled marked, about 3-4 minutes. Grill the tomatoes until their skin just starts to split, about 2 minutes.
  • Slice the kernels off the corn. Dice the peppers, zucchini, onions and broccoli. Halve the tomatoes.
  • Dicing the zucchini, squash and peppers and slicing the kernels off the corn cobs.
  • Place the rolled-out dough directly on the grates and grill for 3 minutes with the lid closed until the crust has grill marks and has puffed up. Turn over the crust and grill for an additional 2 minutes.
  • Remove the crust from the grill. Spread the tomato sauce leaving a 1/2-inch border at the edge and scatter the cheese on top. Arrange the vegetables in stripes by color. Return the pizza back on the grill for a couple minutes to let the cheese melt.

Notes

Makes 1 12-inch pizza.
