Best 6 Hamburger Crust Pizza Recipes

CHEESY HAMBURGER PIZZA

Steps:

• Sprinkle yeast over combined warm water and sugar in large bowl; stir until yeast is dissolved. Let stand 5 min. Mix flour, oil and salt. Add to yeast mixture; stir until mixture forms soft dough.
• Place on lightly floured surface; knead 5 min. or until dough is smooth and elastic. Shape into ball; flatten slightly. Place on large baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray; cover with plastic wrap. Let rise in warm place 20 min.
• Meanwhile, microwave meat in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 2 min. or until done; drain. Break up meat with spoon. Add sauce; mix well.
• Heat oven to 425°F. Divide dough into 4 pieces; stretch and pat each piece into 7-inch round. Place on baking sheet; top with meat mixture and mozzarella. Bake 18 to 20 min. or until cheese is melted and crust is golden brown. Top with Parmesan.

MEATZZA RECIPE (MEAT-CRUST PIZZA)

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Line a 14-inch rimmed, non-perforated pizza pan with a circle of high-heat-resistant parchment paper. You can also use a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment and make the pizza a bit smaller in diameter.
• On the prepared baking sheet, flatten the ground beef into a very thin, large circle - make it as thin as you can (1/8-inch thick is good). I use a rolling pin to roll it as thin as I can, then use my fingers to spread it evenly so that it covers the entire pan.
• Sprinkle the ground beef with kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, oregano, and red pepper flakes.
• Bake the meat crust in the preheated oven until fully cooked. If rolled thin, this should take about 10 minutes.
• Remove the pan from the oven and switch the oven to broil. By now, the meat crust has shrunk and is sitting in a pool of cooking liquids. Carefully transfer it, using two wide spatulas, to a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet.
• Spread the meat base with pizza sauce, then sprinkle the cheese evenly on top. Add your toppings. Return to the oven and broil just until the cheese is melted, 1-2 minutes. You can also bake in the 400F oven for 5 more minutes instead of broiling, but I do like the way broiling crisps up the meaty edges.
• Allow the meatzza to rest for 5 minutes before cutting it into 8 triangles and serving.

PEPPERONI PIZZA BURGER BOMBA

Steps:

• For the sauce: To a small saucepan over low heat add the oil and garlic and cook until fragrant. Add the tomato paste and seasoning, and mash with the back of a wooden spoon. Stir in the crushed tomatoes and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 15 minutes, then remove from the heat.
• For the burger: Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Preheat oven to 550 degrees F with pizza stone on the middle rack of the oven.
• Form the meat into four 4-ounce patties and sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper. Grill until medium, then remove from the heat and place on a paper-towel-lined plate.
• Divide the pizza dough into four 4-ounce balls. Press out each ball on a floured pizza peel to about a 5-inch round. Top each with a slice of scamorza, a couple slices of pepperoni, then 1 burger patty and 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce. Fold the dough over the burger as if making a large dumpling. Brush with olive oil. Bake on the pizza stone in the oven until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve with extra tomato sauce on the side to dip.
