Crabmeat pizza with Whole wheat crust

This was so fun to make! If you love out of the ordinary pizza, you should definitely try this recipe!
Here's the recipe:
Pizza crust:
3 cups all-purpose, whole wheat flour, divided
1 (0.25 oz) package dry yeast
1 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup water
2 T olive oil

Topping:
2-8 oz packages cream cheese, softened
2-6 oz cans crabmeat, drained and flaked
1/4 c milk
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
1 tsp dried basil
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 c Swiss cheese, shredded and divided

In a large bowl, combine half the flour, the yeast, sugar, and salt. In a saucepan, heat water and oil to boiling. Add to the dry ingredients, and beat on medium speed for 3 minutes. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface, and knead until smooth and elastic, about 7 or 8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top as well. Cover the bowl and let the dough rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
Once that is done, punch the dough down and divide in half. On a floured surface, roll each piece into a 13 inch circle. Transfer to two 12 inch pizza pans. Build up the edges slightly, and prick the dough with a fork thoroughly. Bake them at 450 degrees for 10-12 minutes, until lightly browned. In a bowl, combine all the ingredients for the topping, except for the swiss cheese, and spread the mixture over each crust. Then, sprinkle each pizza with 1/2 c. swiss cheese. Bake 10-12 minutes longer or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Cut into wedges and eat and enjoy!
