Also this is my long time desire to try a pizza base separately then bake it with toppings and finally it happenned yesterday.With this measure you can make 3 thin crust wheat pizzas. I reserved one pizza for mittu for her afterschool snack and she loved it.I tried baking them both ways : 1.Push both the base and topping inside the oven. 2.Bake the base first then bake it again with topping. Both the ways has its own plus and minuses. Baking time is almost the same for both the versions as the same 20 mins we are going to split and bake for the 2nd version.One thing I found easy with 2nd version is you can make the pizza base well ahead of time especially when you want to serve for guests or as a after school snack….make the pizza base ready well ahead, then just arrange the toppings and bake it once they arrive and serve the hot pizza….this way the topping never gets overbaked, they are perfect cheesy and crunchy. My OTG always takes atleast 20mins to bake a medium sized pizza, timing may vary according to your oven.I baked the 3rd pizza for mittu using the same recipe but version 1 and it came out good too…..so choose whichever method is convenient for you, I have given both the options.I modified my baking class recipe given here and now this is my keeper.

Expert Tips
The dough shouldnt be sticky…if so then ur dough is watery so add in a little more flour. The dough shouldn’t be very tight, if it is then the pizza will be hard. After getting baked, it will easily move in the pan You can use the same recipe for white base too, but adjust water quantity alone as white flour may take a little less than wheat flour. For microwave check after 5mins then proceed. The resting time totally depends on the type of yeast you are using. If you are making it even more thin base then you can get 3 pizza bases with this recipe. If you cut a tiny area with a knife, u can see if its cooked fully by seeing the bread like texture. You can even lay aluminium foil or butter paper on the try and then roll the dough on it. If you are using instant yeast no need to proof it, add it along with water and just mix it. Do not be tempted to overbake, don’t let it brown at the max 10mins not more than that. As my oven tray is small, I always divide the dough into 2 or 3 and make pizzas. It is again a no fail recipe.The only thing to keep in mind is the measurements and the yeast activeness.With the measurement specified above , u can make 3 small thin crust pizzas. You can keep the base refrigerated for 2-3 days not more than it, use it within that time.
