PIZZA DOUGH RECIPE

Steps:

• In a large (6 quart) bowl, using a wooden spoon or a stand up mixer, mix yeast, salt, sugar, olive oil and water.
• To the ingredients, mix in flour. There is no need to knead the dough, just be sure that all flour is mixed in.
• Cover the bowl with plastic and let the dough rise for about two hours.
• Because this recipe makes four pizzas, I prefer to freeze a part of the dough for later.
• After the dough rises, cut it into four pieces and wrap it tight into plastic. Place the wrapped dough inside a ziploc bag; remove air out the the bag, seal and freeze.

PIZZA BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Cut defrosted, risen dough in half and roll out each half on a floured surface into a 10-inch or 12-inch circle.
• In a small bowl, combine beaten egg and Parmesan cheese. Spread half of egg mixture on each dough circle, leaving a half-inch border around the edge.
• Spread each circle with 1 cup mozzarella cheese, cover with pepperoni, and sprinkle with oregano.
• Starting at one end, roll up into a loaf. Seal edges. Seal ends and tuck under loaf.
• Place loaves on greased baking sheet (or a sheet lined with a silicone baking mat), seam side up or down, brush loaves with olive oil, and bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown.
• Slice while hot and serve with pizza or pasta sauce for dipping.

PIZZA BREAD

Steps:

• Combine olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder in a small bowl.
• Brush a bundt pan or 9x13 baking dish and the inside of a large mixing bowl with the olive oil mixture, reserving about 1 tablespoon of the oil for later.
• Lightly flour a cutting board or working surface. Roll the prepared pizza dough out into a 12 by 9-inch rectangle. Cut the dough into 1-inch cubes.
• Add the dough cubes, mozzarella, parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, crushed red pepper flakes, a small pinch of salt, and up to 1 cup of pizza toppings of your choice to the greased bowl. Toss gently to evenly distribute ingredients.
• Spread the dough mixture evenly in the bundt pan or baking dish. Brush the remaining olive oil evenly over the top of the dough.
• Cover the bundt pan with a towel and let the dough rest for 15 to 20 minutes while the oven preheats. At this time, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Bake for 30-35 minutes if using a bundt pan or 15-20 minutes if using a baking dish, or until the bread is cooked through and golden brown. Be sure to check on the pizza bread halfway through cooking. If you notice the top is browning too quickly, tent the pan with foil and continue baking.
• Once baked, remove the pizza bread from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes in the pan. If baked in a bundt pan, use a butter knife to gently loosen the bread from the sides of the pan and then invert the bread onto a serving platter. Serve with pizza sauce or marinara sauce.
