Healthy bonus: 3.5 grams of fiber per crust, thanks to the whole-
wheat flour

1 tbsp molasses
1 package (1/4 oz) active dry yeast
2 1/2 tbsp kosher salt
2 1/2 tbsp olive oil
1 1/4 cups whole-wheat pastry flour
2 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
Vegetable-oil cooking spray

In a large bowl, combine molasses and yeast with 1 1/3 cups lukewarm water.
Stir. Set aside until bubbly, about 5 minutes. Add salt and oil and stir. In
a separate bowl, mix flours together. Add yeast mixture to flours and stir
with a wooden spoon until dough forms. Divide dough into 8 portions. (Freeze
any unused dough.) Using hands, roll dough into balls, coat fully with
cooking spray and set aside. Prepare a charcoal, gas or stovetop grill.
Grill should be very hot.
Position grilling rack 3 or 4 inches from heat source. Flour a baking sheet.
With hands, flatten a ball of dough into an 8-inch circle on
baking sheet. Using fingertips, gently lift dough, and set it on the grill.
When dough puffs and underside stiffens (about 1 minute for
gas or charcoal, several minutes for stovetop grill), flip crust with a
spatula; move to the coolest part of the grill. Top according to
the recipes above.

Makes 8 individual crusts.
