Spelt flour Pizza is a healthy version of conventional wheat flour. Spelt (Triticum spelta), also known as dinkel wheat, is a species of wheat that has been cultivated since approximately 5000 BC.
The strands of gluten will actually start to break if the dough is kneaded for too long, giving the final dough a crumbly rather than chew texture. The key, then, when working with spelt flour is to avoid over-mixing it.
