Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon Instant Yeast
  • 1 cup Water
  • 3 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1/2 cup White Whole Wheat Flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Granulated Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 3/4 cup Pumpkin Puree
  • 1/2 cup Delicata Squash roasted
  • 2 tablespoons Tomato Sauce
  • 4 slices Pepperoni optional
  • 1/4 cup Onion chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic
  • 1 ounce Mozzarella Cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh Rosemary

Instructions
 

  • Pour the water into a small bowl, and sprinkle the yeast over the top. Let sit about 5 minutes.
  • In the bowl of the food processor fitted with the dough blade, combine the flours, sugar, and salt, and process with a few quick pulses. Spoon in the pumpkin and then pour in the water-yeast mixture. Press On and run just until the dough comes together and forms a ball.
  • Spray a large bowl with cooking spray and place the dough inside the bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • First, roast the squash. Preheat the oven to 350°F with your pizza stone already inside. After peeling the squash, cut it into cubes, and toss the pieces with a bit of olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Place on a foil-lined baking sheet in the oven and bake for about 20 minutes, until golden. Set aside.
  • Increase the oven heat to 425°F.
  • Sauté the onion in olive oil over medium heat. Add in the garlic, and cook a few minutes longer.
  • Roll out the dough and divide it into 6 equal portions. Place the pizzas you wish to bake immediately on a pizza peel.
  • Spoon the sauce on to the dough, and then sprinkle on the pepperoni, squash, onion and garlic mixture, and fresh rosemary. Top with the cheese.
  • Slide the assembled pizzas from your pizza peel onto the hot pizza stone.Bake 20-25 minutes or until the cheese is golden brown.
