whole wheat pizza & pita dough

{PIZZA}
.
2 1/2 tsp yeast
1 cup warm water
2 cup wheat flour (I have used half wheat, half white as well)
1/4 cup wheat germ (I used flax and bran)
1 tsp salt
1 large tbsp honey
.
-oven 350ish
-dissolve yeast in warm water, let it get foamy for about 10 minutes
-combine dry ingredients and make a well, pour yeasty mixture and honey in the well
-stir it up,and kneed it up. mine came out a little sticky, so just slowly add more flour as you go to get the right consistency
-roll dough on a floured surface, let it rest for a bit and there ya go!
.
.
{PITAS}
same exact thing as the pizza, only roll it out, pick a bowl out that is about the same size as a pita and use it as a cookie cutter.
Place the pitas on a cookie sheet (I sprayed mine before) and poke holes with a fork.
Brush with an olive oil, salt and garlic mixture to keep them yummy and moist.
then bake them, probably 5ish minutes, just watch them, you want them barely barely barely golden brown on the edges.
