Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

½ (12 ounce) can CONTADINA® Tomato Paste
1 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed
1 teaspoon dried basil, crushed
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon sugar
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
3 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, or more as needed
2 (.25 ounce) envelopes FLEISCHMANN'S® Pizza Crust Yeast or RapidRise® Yeast
1 tablespoon sugar
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 ⅓ cups very warm water (120 degrees F to 130 degrees F)
⅓ cup oil
1 (6 ounce) package HORMEL® Pepperoni
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, or more to taste

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.

Time 1h50m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 recipe Foolproof Pizza Dough, recipe follows
4 tablespoons Pizza Sauce, recipe follows
1 ounce fresh mozzarella, torn
3 ounces mozzarella, shredded
1 ounce provolone, shredded
10 to 15 pepperoni slices
1 teaspoon Garlic Butter, recipe follows
1 teaspoon instant or active dry yeast
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/3 cup olive oil, plus additional for drizzling
One 15-ounce can crushed Italian plum tomatoes in thick puree
One 15-ounce can plum tomato strips
1/2 cup basil chiffonade
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 tablespoon Calabrian chile paste
1 teaspoon flaky sea salt, such as Maldon
1 teaspoon sugar
4 cloves garlic, peeled and roughly chopped
3 1/2 sticks salted butter
16 cloves garlic, finely pressed
Coarse sea salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Brush a sheet pan with olive oil.
  • Roll out the dough ball, then transfer to the sheet pan. Spoon on the pizza sauce and spread it around, then top with the fresh mozzarella.
  • Mix together the shredded mozzarella and provolone in a bowl, then sprinkle over the pizza.
  • Place the pepperoni all over the top. Bake until done, 10 to 12 minutes. Brush the crust with garlic butter, then serve.
  • Sprinkle the yeast over 1 1/2 cups of warm (not lukewarm) water. Let stand for a few minutes.
  • Combine the flour and salt in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Turn the mixer on low speed and drizzle in the oil until combined with the flour. Next, pour in the yeast mixture and mix until just combined and the dough comes together in a sticky mass.
  • Coat a separate mixing bowl with a light drizzle of olive oil and form the dough into a ball. Toss to coat the dough in the oil, then cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and set it aside for at least 1 or up to 2 hours at room temperature, or store in the fridge until you need it, up to 4 days ahead. Bring the refrigerated dough to room temperature before using.
  • Cook's Note: The dough is best made at least 24 hours in advance, and 3 or 4 days is even better.
  • Add the plum tomatoes, tomato strips, basil, oil, chile paste, salt, sugar and garlic to a food processor and blend until smooth.
  • Melt the butter in a skillet over medium-low heat, then add the garlic and salt. Cook for a couple of minutes to release the flavor, but don't let the garlic brown.

VEGGIE AND PEPPERONI PIZZA



Veggie and Pepperoni Pizza image

I am searching for a healthier pizza, and this is my first step towards one. I plan on using turkey pepperoni and a whole wheat crust in the future, but this pizza turned out really well. My family really liked it. I recommend the pizza sauce that I posted as a separate recipe for this pizza because it throws in some extra veggies in the sauce.
