Ingredients
pizza dough
- 3 cups bread flour all purpose is fine
- 2 ¼ teaspoon instant yeast
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 8 ounces warm water
filling
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella
- ½ cup grated Parmesan, plus more for sprinkling
- 2 ounces thinly sliced pepperoni, sliced into thin strips
- 1 tablespoon minced oregano
- 3 ½ cups tomato sauce, divided
garlic-herb butter
- ½ cup (1 stick) salted butter
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 tablespoon thinly sliced chives
- 1 teaspoon minced oregano
Instructions
- Pizza Dough: Pour flour, yeast, salt, and oil into a mixing bowl and whisk together. Add water, 1/4 cup water at a time and mix together until soft and sticky dough forms.
- Turn dough out onto a clean and lightly floured surface and knead for 2 to 3 minutes, until smooth dough forms.
- Lightly grease a mixing bowl, add dough and cover. Allow dough to rest and double in size, about 1 hour.
- Filling: Place mozzarella, Parmesan, pepperoni, oregano, and 2 3/4 cups tomato sauce into a mixing bowl and mix together.
- To assemble: Preheat oven to 425˚F.
- Divide dough in half and cover one of the balls of dough. Roll other half of dough until 1/4″ thick.
- Using a circle cutter, cut out 10 to 12, 2.5”circles.
- Scoop 2 tablespoons of the filling into the center of each circle and fold in half. Line each stuffed half circle into a lightly greased loaf pan, seam side up.
- Once the pan is filled, sprinkle the top with grated Parmesan and repeat with the remaining ingredient in the other loaf pan.
- Place the pans onto a baking sheet and bake for 22 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and Allow breads to cool, about 10 minutes.
- garlic-herb butter: Place butter and garlic into a small saucepan and place over low heat. Melt butter and garlic together and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in herbs.
- Brush butter onto each loaf and serve with remaining tomato sauce.
