The Ultimate Stuffed Crust Pizza – Leave No Crust Behind!
Ingredients:
- Pizza Dough (my recipe here)
- La Romanella Prepared Pizza Sauce
- Mozzarella Cheese
- La Romanella Pepperoni
- La Romanella Sliced Salami
- La Romanella Grated Parmesan Cheese
- La Romanella Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- La Romanella Mild Italian Sausage
Directions
- Remove the casings from two sausage links, crumble and cook. Roll out your pizza dough. You can make it any shape you want – whatever works for you! I made mine into a circle. Kind of. Spread some olive oil onto your pizza dough. Add the pizza sauce and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
- Layer on some mozzarella cheese. Now it’s time for the “meat lovers” part of the recipe :) I started with salami but you can start with whatever meat you like. After the salami, top with pepperoni (this pepperoni is my FAVORITE), a little more cheese, and then finally the sausage.
- Now we get to the crust. The stuffed crust. Grab a piece of pepperoni or salami and add a little shredded mozzarella cheese to the top. Roll it up and then place it at the edge of the pizza crust. Pull the crust up and over the meat and cheese roll and press the crust together.
- Keep working your way around the pizza, rolling and crimping…
- Until it looks like this!
- Bake the pizza according to to your pizza dough instructions. I make my own dough and bake it at 425 degrees for about 15 minutes. The pizza is done when the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and melted. Yum!
- Now when you tell your kids to eat their crust – they won’t mind!
- Besides for pizza – what’s your favorite type of Italian food?
Bread Machine Pizza Dough {Recipe}
Ingredients:
- 2 c flour (I like to use bread flour but all purpose and even a combination of AP and wheat flour works)
- 1 Tbls butter, softened
- 1 Tbls sugar
- 1 tsp yeast
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 c plus 2 Tbls water (105-110 degrees)
- Doubled (for 2 pizzas):
- 4 c flour
- 2 Tbls butter, softened
- 2 Tbls sugar
- 2 tsp yeast
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 1/3 c water (105-110 degrees)
Directions:
- Add all ingredients into your bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Make sure that the water is warm enough to proof the yeast (about 105-110 degrees).
- Turn your bread machine to the dough setting and let ‘er go! After a couple minutes check on your dough. Make sure that the ingredients are thoroughly combined and that the dough is not too wet or too dry. Depending on where you live and the flour you use there can be some variances in the dough. If it’s too dry, add 1 tsp of water at a time. If the dough is too sticky, add 1 tsp of flour at a time.
- The dough will raise nicely during the dough cycle. Isn’t it pretty? It never ceases to amaze me what a little yeast can do :)
- After the bread machine is done (mine takes about 90 minutes on the dough cycle) – dump the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and work it until you achieve your desired shape.
- Depending on the size of pizza pan or pizza stone you are using, you may not need all of the dough.
- I like to lightly grease my pizza pan and dust with cornmeal. Make up your pizza and bake at 400-425 degrees for 18-25 minutes. You are looking for bubbly cheese and lightly browned crust. If you like a crunchier crust, brush some olive oil on the crust before baking.
