Cornmeal Mini-Pizza Dough image

This recipe is from Epicurious.com, from a recipe called Three-Cheese Cornmeal Pizzette. I just make the dough and improvise the toppings. The cornmeal gives a wonderful texture and flavor to the dough. The dough freezes well - great for smaller households. The directions below are for two pizzas - but the entire recipe makes four.

Time 30m

Yield 4 individual pizzas

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 ounce fast rising yeast (2 1/2 tsp)
1 cup yellow cornmeal
1 cup hot water (130 deg F)
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons sugar
2 tablespoons olive oil
arugula or tomatoes

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 500 deg. F.
  • In a food processor, combine 1 cup flour, yeast and sugar. With motor running, pour in the hot water.
  • Turn motor off and add remaining ingredients. Process mixture until it forms a ball, and then process 15 seconds longer to knead.
  • Turn out onto a lightly floured board and knead 10 times. To make two pizzas, cut into half; wrap one half well and freeze for up to one month.
  • Divide remaining piece in half. Roll or press out each half into an 8" circle. Transfer to a baking sheet and lightly brush or spray with additional olive oil.
  • Top with favorite toppings, season with salt and pepper. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until crust is golden and cheese is melted.
  • Note1: white cornmeal works just as well. While the recipe calls for hot water, I usually use room temperature or even cool water - the action of the FP can heat up the dough quite a bit, so I would rather allow a little more time.
  • Note2: toppings must be thinly sliced; meats and some veggies should be cooked - this pizza is in the oven only a short time. I've never used a pizza sauce with this - if you do and it works, let us know!
