1 tsp. honey
3/4 cup warm water
1T. active dry yeast
3/4 cup arrowroot flour
1 1/2 cups spelt flour
1 1/2 cups cooked great white northern beans, pureed
1 tsp. salt
1/4 cup regular olive oil
Note: add spelt flour as required.

In mixing bowl, dissolve honey in warm water. Sprinkle in yeast and let stand 10 minutes until foamy. In separate bowl, stir together flours, pureed beans and salt. Stir oil into yeast mixture. Stir in about half the flour mixture. Gradually stir in the rest of the flour to make a slightly sticky ball of dough. Divide into two balls. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each half of the dough into circles about 10 inches in diameter. Transfer to two nonstick pizza pans. Stretch dough to fit round pans. Let rest at least for 10 minutes before adding toppings. A 30-minute rise will give you a thicker, higher crust. Add toppings just before baking in a pre-heated oven at 375-degree. Bake 25 minutes.

Notes: Even though an individual slice doesn’t meet the 4g fiber I usually require to put this in the high fiber category, I’m adding it because a person would rarely have one slice only, plus it’s still tons of fiber over white bread dough. This isn’t particularly low calorie dough, and this is only for the crust, not the toppings which will add even more calories. But if you are craving pizza, this is a great way to get some extra fiber in your diet. With topping of caramelized onion, sliced artichole hearts and a minimal amount of sauce and cheese — yum! =)
