Pizza crust is very versatile and inexpensive.
If you want to get away from traditional pizza, then roll out flat and add ingredients of choice, roll up and bake.
Some combinations to choose from:
Pepperoni and black olives, and mozzarella- I don’t use pizza sauce in mine but you can.
Ham and cheddar
Chicken, broccoli and cheddar
Cooked seasoned taco meat, tomatoes, and cheese-refried beans, rice, etc.
Scrambled eggs, sausage/bacon/ham, cheese
To make it pretty I like to drizzle a little olive oil on top of the roll and sprinkle with a little shredded cheese. Top with chives or parsley and powdered parmesan cheese.
These are great hot out of the oven, sliced, and dipped in ranch dressing. They taste a lot like hot pockets.
Pizza Crust:
This makes one thick crust or two thin crusts. I usually just half the recipe for one thin pizza.
1 cup warm water
1 Tbsp yeast
2 Tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
2 Tbsp vegetable oil
2 ½ cup all purpose flour
Dissolve yeast in water. Add in sugar, salt, and oil. Mix, then add in flour. Spread on lightly greased pizza pan. (can sprinkle greased pan with corn meal, though not necessary) Let rise in pan for a while 30 minutes if possible. Then spread with toppings and bake 400* for 15-20 minutes.
If making rolls you can skip the rise time. After adding all ingredients roll out on floured board. Spread on topping to within an inch from edge and then roll up jelly roll style and tuck under ends. Spread with oil and cheese across top of roll and bake at 400* for around 15-20 minutes. Until crust is baked and golden.
When making the hot pocket rolls I make the recipe with amounts stated and make two rolls.(they are easier to handle ) That way you can make two different variations of them in one cooking.
Happy eating!
