Einkorn Pizza Dough ~ Winner Recipe!

I've been wanting to try the Einkorn pizza dough recipe the entire summer now.  With the canner pot back in the kitchen, I was leary about trying such a recipe on such a busy work day, but I did.  I actually made these the same night of canning the carrot cake jam. I worked on the dough in between freezing the carrots too. 

I had a few garden green bell peppers, some onions,  and of course home canned pizza sauce.  Wa-la!

A homesteader's pizza for dinner.
 


I added cooked, homemade sausage on the second pizza.  Oh my!  Yum!

My family is so spoiled.  Total goodness.

If you want the recipe for the dough, you can find the recipe here:  Einkorn Pizza Dough  (Jovial's site online, and also on the bag of flour I had).  Also, allow 3 hours for rising time if you are making fresh pizzas.  You can always freeze this after the first (2 hour) rise as well. 

If you grow herbs you can roll that into your dough too - garlic, rosemary, oregano etc.  Yum!  Double Yum!  

I used organic corn meal to dust my pizza pan, and I used my pampered chef stoneware pan to bake them.  They turned out great, and the family raved about the taste. 

My only tip:  oil the rising bowl well, dough will come out sticky to punch down and put into two balls.  I kept the 1/2 cup flour on reserve for this step, and it worked out well. Also for rolling out the dough for the pizza.

Thank you Susan. They all loved the pizza and the crust was pretty easy to make. I'm going to try freezing it next.

I've yet to try the einkorn pizza crust, but now am eager to do so with your great recommendation! I'm in a baking and cooking mood now that our weather has finally turned cooler and I don't hesitate turning on the oven!

Indeed your family are spoilt but certainly blessed to have someone as skilled in the kitchen as you. Those pizzas look amazing.

Mama Pea, I rolled ours to about 13-14 inches and it wasn't super thin, but just enough crust for a good pizza. You can roll them smaller for a thicker dough too. Just total goodness.

mamasmercantile, for years I avoided anything that required rising dough. I was just simply intimidated by the thought of messing it up. Now I am trying all sorts of baking with yeast/dough etc.

Hibiscus House, my husband said he new it would be good when he saw the sauce, veggies and cheese spread all the way to the edges. I do believe I'll be whipping up dough to freeze after this weekend.

Horsetail Salve ~ A "first" this Year

We purchased some horsetail salve to try last year.  It is said to help with severely dry, cracked skin.  My husband was the first to try it, with very, very dry and cracked hands from work. He loves it!  He joked I could not have it back.   I started the infused, horsetail oil the last part of March. Something I learned:   horsetail is also called shavegrass. I infused horsetail in oil, and strained it.  I then made horsetail salve.  I remembered to label my jar with what oil(s) I used, so I can journal this all in my "Herbal Remedies" journal.  I often forget to write the oil used. Now, the one we bought, has more in it than I put in ours, as far as ingredients (the purchased salve had lanolin, and aloe).  We'll see if ours works just as good.  I added the sage essential oil, and vitamin E oil. A "first" time experience for us this year.    I bought the larger tins at a seed store in an Amish area last year.  They a...

  The pickings are slim right now, but we'll take anything we are blessed with.  I made a salad and cleaned the beans.  The rain will give us more for a meal in a day or so.  The green beans are every so slowly coming on this season. I made a batch of homemade granola, and instead of my homemade vanilla extract, I used my homemade Christmas Spice Extract.  It smelled so good in the oven, and while cooling.   I picked some purslane, and am doing an experiment with it this time.  Update soon.   Chit Chat ©  August 2026 by Kristina at Pioneer Woman at Heart

New Recipe Tried and other Bits

  I tried a new granola recipe and boy it's good.  First, it's a recipe from Mennonite Girls and Cook, and called "Backpack Snacks" online.  It calls for granola, so I used my homemade granola that we love.  Picture is the dry ingredients. Second, I pressed the final mixture into a 9 x 9, parchment lined baking dish instead of rolling it into balls.  The color of these photos are all different, because of the time of day, and how dark the house was from the thick Canadian smoke that was still outside at the time. These cut very nicely, and were very good, straight from the refrigerator.  It was hard to eat just one of them.  I will be making this again, and switching out the peanuts with walnuts, and switching out the raisins with dates.  Oh my!  The binder is honey and peanut butter. These are perfect for your hiking days, camping, your grandkids, or just for snacks when you want one. The rain arrived thank goodness, and washed the smoke in...
