No Crust Pepperoni Pizza Recipes

NO CRUST PEPPERONI PIZZA

Steps:

• Sprinkle the cheese into a small pan, top with the pepperoni and cook over medium heat until the cheese is bubbling and the edges are golden brown before letting it cool a bit to allow the cheese to set.

HOMEMADE PEPPERONI PIZZA

Steps:

• For sauce: Combine all sauce ingredients with 1/2 cup water in a medium bowl; set aside for flavors to develop while making crust. Freeze remaining paste .
• For crusts: Combine 2 cups of flour with the dry yeast, sugar and salt. Add the water and oil and mix until well blended (about 1 minute). Gradually add enough remaining flour slowly, until a soft, sticky dough ball is formed.
• Knead for about 4 minutes, on a floured surface, until dough is smooth and elastic. Add more flour, if needed. (If using RapidRise® Yeast, let dough rest, covered, for 10 minutes.)
• Divide dough in half. Pat each half (with floured hands) into a 12-inch greased pizza pan OR roll dough to fit pans.
• For pizzas: Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Top crusts with sauce, pepperoni and cheese.
• Bake for 18 to 20 minutes until crusts are browned and cheese is bubbly. For best results, rotate pizza pans between top and bottom oven racks halfway through baking.

KETO PEPPERONI PIZZA WITH FATHEAD CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Mix yeast into warm water in a small cup, stirring to dissolve. Set aside.
• Place 1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese into a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 90 seconds, stirring every 30 seconds until completely melted. Stir in the yeast mixture and egg; stir to combine. The mixture will not incorporate well at this point.
• Stir in almond flour, xanthan gum, and salt. If difficult to mix, reheat in the microwave for 20-30 seconds to soften the cheese. Stir again until well incorporated. Knead dough by hand for 2 minutes.
• Place dough on the prepared baking sheet and press with your fingers into a thin crust 11 to 12 inches in diameter.
• Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Spread pizza sauce over pizza. Top with remaining 1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese, then scatter pepperoni on top.
• Return to the oven and bake until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes more. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes. Cut into 6 slices.

NO-KNEAD DOUBLE PEPPERONI PIZZA

Steps:

• Use the refrigerated pre-mixed dough for No-Knead Flatbreads Recipe #387518.
• Twenty minutes before baking, place a baking stone in the oven and preheat to 500 degree F.
• Remove the Olive Oil Flatbread dough (Recipe #387518) from the refrigerator. Lighly dust the surface with flour and cut off a 1 pound (grapefruit size) piece.
• With lightly floured hands quickly shape dough into a ball by streching the surface of the dough around to the bottom on all four sides, rotating the ball a quarter turn as you go.
• On a lightly floured board, flatten the dough, with hands and rolling pin, into a 1/8 inch thick round, dusting with minimal flour if necessary to keep dough from sticking to the rolling pin. If difficulty is experienced in rolling out the dough, allow it to rest for a few minutes. I've found that pulling the dough with my hands works best.
• Place the rolled out dough on a pizza peel that has been dusted with corn meal.
• Add your favorite sauce and toppings . . . DO NOT OVERLOAD.
• Sprinkle on mozzarella cheese and Parmesan.
• Immediately place in oven and bake until the crust is browned and cheese is bubbly, approximately 10 - 15 minutes.
• NOTE: The cornmeal may cause the oven to smoke so turn on the exhaust fan.
• Allow to cool slightly before slicing.
