Ingredients

Servings

For the Pizza Dough

  • 2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1 cup water warm
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 2 cups bread flour
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • pizza dough or 1 lb if you want to skip dough

For the Sauce and Herbs

  • ½ cup butter melted
  • cup Parmesan Cheese grated, or pecorino cheese
  • 3 tablespoons parsley chopped, fresh
  • 5 scallions chopped
  • 10 basil chopped, leaves
  • 5 cloves garlic minced
  • salt kosher salt and freshly cracked
  • black pepper kosher salt and freshly cracked
  • 1 cup marinara sauce or pizza sauce

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the bread flour, all purpose flour and salt. Set aside.
  2. Combine the active yeast and water in a mixing bowl fitted with a dough hook. Let it sit for a few minutes to make sure your yeast is working. Add the sugar and mix for a quick second. Add the flour mixture in batches, scraping down the sides of the bowl. Let the dough hook work its magic for 5-6 minutes until the dough has come together into a large mass. Remove the dough to an oiled bowl and let rise for 60 minutes.
  3. After an hour, remove the dough from the bowl and cut into small ½ inch cubes. Dust with flour to prevent them from sticking together. Set aside.
  4. Butter and flour 6 small bundt pans. (You could also use a large bundt pan)
  5. Melt the butter in a small bowl.
  6. Combine the cheese, herbs, salt/pepper and garlic in a large bowl. Add the melted butter and mix together with a spoon. Toss in the cut dough and make sure it all gets a coat of the butter mixture. Start layering the cubes into the bundt pans until they are ¾ of the way full. Let sit for 30 minutes for the dough to rise a little more and while they are rising, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  7. Place bundt pans into the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes until the bread and cheese is golden brown. Serve with warmed marinara sauce or pizza sauce.
