Tips:

  • To make the dough, use cold butter and water. This will help to create a flakier crust.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will also help to prevent the dough from becoming too sticky.
  • When rolling out the dough, use a light touch. Rolling the dough too hard will make it tough.
  • If the dough starts to stick to the rolling pin, sprinkle it with a little flour.
  • To make the sun-dried tomato sauce, use high-quality sun-dried tomatoes. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the sauce.
  • Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes. This will help to develop the flavors.
  • When assembling the wagon wheels, brush the dough with olive oil before filling it with the sun-dried tomato sauce. This will help to prevent the dough from becoming soggy.
  • Bake the wagon wheels until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.

Conclusion:

Wagon wheels are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover sun-dried tomatoes. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and impressive dish that everyone will love.
