MINI PIZZAS RECIPE

Steps:

• Place the warm water in a large mixing bowl. Stir in the sugar and sprinkle the yeast over the top. Allow this to set for five minutes. The mixture will start to foam and bubble.
• Add the oil, flour, salt, and herbs. Stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
• Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about five minutes until a smooth dough ball is formed.
• Transfer the dough ball to a greased bowl, cover, and allow to rise until doubled in bulk, about an hour.
• Combine the dough ingredients in the bread machine pan, according to the order recommended by the manufacturer.
• Set on dough and start the machine, checking after ten minutes to make sure all the ingredients have been incorporated and not stuck to the side of the pan. Scrape down any stray ingredients to insure they are mixed in.
• Place the warm water in the mixing bowl. Stir in the sugar and sprinkle the yeast over the top. Allow this to set for five minutes. The mixture will start to foam and bubble.
• Add the oil, flour, salt, and herbs. Attach the dough hook and run the machine until all the ingredients are incorporated, stopping the machine to scrape the sides as necessary. Knead with the dough hook until a smooth dough ball is formed.
• Transfer the dough ball to a greased bowl, cover, and allow to rise until doubled in bulk, about an hour.
• Preheat the oven to 500 °. Spray baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray and sprinkle with corn meal to prevent sticking or line the pans with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
• Divide the dough into 16 portions. Flatten each portion into a thin round and place on the cooking sheet.
• Spread sauce and sprinkle toppings as desired.
• Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until the crust is crisp and the cheese melted and lightly browned.
• Wrap cooled pizzas in foil or plastic wrap and stash in a larger ziptop freezer bag. Thaw and reheat in a 350 oven for about 5 minutes.
• Assemble the pizzas as directed, but instead of baking, place the trays in the freezer. Once the pizzas are frozen solid (this will take several hours), stack them between layers of patty papers or waxed paper and store in a freezer bag or box in the freezer. To serve: bake from frozen at 450 degrees, for 10 to 12 minutes.

MINI ANTIPASTO PIZZAS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F and line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper. Spray the parchment with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
• Prep all your toppings by cutting everything into small bite-size pieces.
• On a lightly floured surface, divide the dough into 4 pieces, then divide each piece into 4; you should end up with 16 pieces of dough. Spray your hands with nonstick cooking spray if the dough is sticking. Working one at a time, begin to stretch and flatten the dough with your hands, adding flour as needed to prevent sticking. Transfer it to the baking sheet and continue to stretch the dough until it's about 4 inches in diameter. Continue the process with the remaining pizza dough, placing 8 rounds on each baking sheet.
• Start with a spoonful of the sauce of your choice, spreading into a thin layer. Top your pizzas as desired, being sure to not load the pizza with too many toppings or it will not cook evenly.
• Bake until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the pizzas from the oven and top with fresh toppings and a light drizzle of olive oil. Transfer the pizzas to a platter and serve.
