Instructions

To make the crust

Combine the whole wheat pastry flour and ¾ cup of white flour with the salt, sugar, and yeast.
Pour the warm water and tablespoon of olive oil over flour mixture and stir to combine. Mix in remaining 1 cup flour.
Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface and knead until smooth, adding more flour as needed.
Spray a mixing bowl with cooking spray. Place dough in bowl and then turn over. Cover with a towel and let rise approximately 45 minutes or until dough doubles in size.

To Bake The Pizza

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Punch down dough and let rest for 10 minutes. While dough is resting, make sauce. Mix together in a small bowl the ketchup, mustard, Merlot sauce and mayonnaise.
Spray a 9 x 13 pan with cooking spray. Sprinkle with cornmeal. Place dough in pan and press the dough out, making sure to have the dough go up the sides of the pan to create the dish effect.
Spread sauce over top of dough. Layer toppings as follows: Sprinkle with 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, spread cooked ground beef over top of cheese, sprinkle with remaining mozzarella and then lastly top with cheddar cheese.
Bake in oven approximately 20 minutes or until crust is browned and topping begins to brown lightly. Remove from oven and top with bacon pieces. Garnish with lettuce, tomato, onion and more bacon if desired.
