Ingredients

  • For dough
  • 2/3 cup warm water
  • 1/2 teaspoon dry active yeast
  • 1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon olive oil plus more for bowl
  • 1 cup bread flour plus more for work surface
  • 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • For mushrooms
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 8 ounces cremini or baby bella mushrooms, sliced
  • For corn
  • 1 ear corn, shucked
  • 1/2 teaspoon olive oil
  • For pizza
  • 1-8 ounce ball fresh mozzarella, grated
  • 1 garlic clove, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped chives
  • Shaved Parmesan for serving
  • Flaky sea salt and black pepper for serving
Makes: 12inch round

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 both flours and salt. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients 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.
  • For the mushrooms, whisk together 3 tablespoons olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Add the mushrooms, tossing to coat.
  • Rub the corn with 1/2 teaspoon olive oil.
  • Preheat a gas or charcoal grill on high heat.
  • Grill the corn until it's lightly charred, about 5-7 minutes. Let the corn cool slightly before slicing the kernels off the cob.
  • Grill the mushrooms until they are grill marked, about 1-2 minutes per side.
  • On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the dough into a 12-inch diameter circle. Place the 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.
  • Sprinkle the mozzarella over the pizza. Continue grilling until the cheese has mostly melted, about 2-3 minutes. Top with corn, mushrooms and garlic. Grill for another minute or so to warm the toppings.
  • To finish, sprinkle the pizza with chives and shaved Parmesan and season to taste with flaky sea salt and black pepper.

Notes

To save time, you can use store-bought pizza dough instead of making the dough from scratch.
If the pizza is cooking too fast, move it to a cooler part of the grill.
