Directions
  • In a small bowl, whisk yeast and water until yeast is completely dissolved. Set aside.
  • In a food processor, process the flours, salt and sugar for approximately 5 seconds.
  • With the machine running, slowly add liquid through the top feed slot. Continue to process until the dough forms a sticky ball and pulls away from the sides of the processor, approximately 1 /12 - 2 minutes.

  • Divide dough into two equal portions and shap into smooth balls.
