A delightful twist on traditional pizza, this pizza bread is a perfect combination of fluffy bread and classic pizza flavors. It's great for snacking, sharing, or as a meal on its own.
Ingredients: 3 cups all-purpose flour. 1 packet 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast. 1 tsp sugar. 1 tsp salt. 1 cup warm water. 2 tbsp olive oil. 1/2 cup pizza sauce. 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese. 1/2 cup sliced pepperoni or your favorite pizza toppings. 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaves. 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
Instructions: In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes foamy. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Pour in the yeast mixture and olive oil. Stir until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise for 1 hour or until it has doubled in size. Preheat your oven to 425F 220C. Punch down the risen dough and roll it out into a 12x16-inch rectangle on a floured surface. Spread pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then add your desired pizza toppings. Roll up the dough tightly, starting from the long edge, to form a log. Pinch the seams to seal. Place the pizza bread seam side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the top with olive oil and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh basil leaves. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Enjoy your homemade pizza bread!
