Instructions

For the pizza crust:
    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat gas grill to medium-high heat. Using a paper towel drizzled with olive oil, grease the grates to prevent sticking (do this after the grill has been cleaned and preheated, carefully without burning yourself).
  2. While grill is heating, prepare pizza crust. Combine 2 cups of flour, undissolved yeast, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Add the warm water and oil. Mix until well blended, about a minute, then gradually add the remaining flour. Using a dough hook on an electric mixer, knead dough for several minutes until dough forms a nice ball. OR, if you want, knead by hand on lightly floured surface, for about 5 minutes, until dough is smooth and elastic.
  3. Divide dough into 8 portions. Pat or roll dough into 6 to 8-inch circles, they don't need to be perfect! Place each pizza crust onto a separate piece of parchment paper. When transferring dough to the grill, place dough on grill (parchment paper side up), then carefully peel the parchment paper off the back.
  4. Cook for about 3-5 minutes until the bottom of the crust is lightly browned and the top appears set. Using grill tongs, remove crust from grill, grilled side up, to a large platter or cutting board.
  5. If making dessert pizzas, flip the crust and cook an additional 3-5 minutes on opposite side, until crust is completely cooked. Remove from grill.
Preparing the pizzas:
  1. Assemble all your toppings prior to cooking the dough. Once you've completed step 4 in the pizza crust preparation, and you have removed the pizzas to a large platter or cutting board, begin preparing your pizza.
  2. For the pesto tomato pizza, spread your pesto on the pizza crust (grilled side up). Add your tomato slices and cheese.
  3. For the sausage and cheese, spread your pizza sauce onto the pizza crust (grilled side up). Add your meat (and veggies) and cheese.
  4. For the bbq chicken pizza, spread your bbq sauce onto the pizza crust (grilled side up). Top it with your cooked chicken, red onion, cheese and cilantro.
  5. Return all the pizzas to the hot grill. Cook an additional 3-5 minutes until the bottom crust appears completely cooked. Remove from grill and serve immediately.
  6. For the dessert pizzas, these will be made on completely cooked crusts (following step 5 in crust preparation). Spread your toppings on the cooked crust (peanut butter, bananas, chocolate, etc). Return to grill and heat until chocolate is melted (about 2-3 minutes).
  7. Cut pizzas and serve!

Notes

  •  
  • If you can't find the pizza crust yeast, substitute with Fleischmann's® RapidRise™ Yeast (allowing the dough to rest about 10 minutes after step 2).
  • For the toppings, amounts vary depending on how many individual pizzas you are making!
