Cooking instruction summary:

In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine water, yeast and honey; let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. In a large bowl, combine flours. Stir in 1/2 cup flour mixture into the yeast mixture until smooth. Cover with a clean dishtowel and let stand in a warm spot until dough has doubled in size, about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Using the dough hook, gradually add olive oil, salt and remaining 2 1/2 cups flour mixture, 1/2 cup at a time, until a soft, smooth ball of dough is formed. The dough should feel elastic and slightly tacky to the touch. Increase speed to medium-high and beat for 3 minutes. Lightly oil a large bowl or coat with nonstick spray; place dough in bowl, turning to coat. Cover with a clean dishtowel and let stand in a warm spot until dough has doubled in size, about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Gently deflate dough by punching down. Cut into 12 pieces, shaping into a ball. Using a rolling pin, flatten each ball into a 5-inch round. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Place rounds onto the prepared baking sheets. Cover with a clean dishtowel and let stand in a warm spot until dough has doubled in size, about 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 475 degrees F. Place into oven and bake until puffed, about 5-8 minutes. Serve warm.
