Used this serious eats recipe, love their detailed explanations of each step.

Didn’t have whole wheat so subbed with all purpose. Will probably add more salt next time (but we’re salt fiends)

Finally, don’t have a pizza steel/stone so just used an upside down ceramic at 245-250°C

Also, sorry, only snapped this one pic when I saw it blow up. Sadly, once baked every single one got devoured before another pic could capture the crumb.

That looks great!

If you consider upgrading, get a steel. I bought several stones before caving and getting a steel plate. So much less hassle.

Blackened (or maybe blued, not sure how it's known in English) steel is the all purpose best thing one can use in an oven I think. It needs a wee bit of maintenance, but that's really nothing. And you put paper on it anyway.
