POLKA DOT PIZZAS - ORIGINAL 1975 RECIPE



Polka Dot Pizzas - Original 1975 Recipe image

This is from the 1975 "Betty Crocker's Cookbook for Boys & Girls". I recently discussed with my group how this was my first cookbook, which caused me to look through it again. This was a recipe I made over and over again as a kid. :) With all the wonderful ready made ingredients available today, it would be so easy to make...

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 can(s) (8 oz each) tomato sauce
1/2 c chopped onion (or 3 tbsp. dry minced)
2 tsp dry oregano
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 1/2 c biscuit baking mix
1 pkg active dry yeast
2/3 c hot water
2 c cheddar cheese, shredded or mozzarella
6 hot dogs

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oven to 425 degrees. Rub some flour into breadboard to cover about a 10-inch area.
  • 2. Mix the tomato sauce, onion, oregano and pepper in medium bowl with fork.(You'll use this later for a topping.)
  • 3. Mix baking mix and the yeast in large bowl with another fork. Stir in the hot water and beat vigorously until the dough cleans the side of the bowl.
  • 4. Gently smooth the dough into a ball on the floured board. Knead 20 times. Allow the dough to rest a few minutes, then divide the dough into 3 equal parts.
  • 5. Shape 1 part into a ball and place it in the center of ungreased cookie sheet. Rub a little flour on rolling pin and roll the ball into an oval 1/4-inch thick. Pinch the edge to make a little stand-up rim.
  • 6. Dip out 1/3 of the tomato sauce mixture (about 2/3 cup) and pour onto the oval. Spread the sauce mixture almost to the edge of the dough with rubber scraper. Sprinkle with 1/3 of the shredded cheese (about 2/3 cup).
  • 7. Cut 2 of the hotdogs crosswise into penny slices on cutting board. Arrange the slices on the pizza.
  • 8. Bake in 425 degree oven 15 to 20 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
  • 9. Repeat steps 5 through 8 with 2 remaining parts of dough and remaining sauce, cheese, and hotdogs to make 2 more pizzas.
  • 10. Note: You may want to gobble up the pizzas as they come out of the oven. If not, this is a good bake-ahead recipe. When you're ready to eat, heat the pizzas, 2 at a time, on an ungreased cokkie sheet in a 300 degree oven, about 5 minutes or until hot. The third pizza will be ready by the time you've finished eating the first 2.
