Ingredients
Homemade Dough
- ⅔ cup warm water 110 degrees
- 1 ½ tsp yeast
- 2 tsp sugar
- 2 cups flour separated
- 1 tbsp oil
- ½ tsp EACH: salt, garlic powder, oregano
Toppings
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese optional
- 1 ½ cup marinara or pizza sauce
- ½ cup pepperoni about 30 slices
Instructions
- The first step is to prepare the pizza dough. In the bowl of your stand up mixer, add the warm water, yeast and sugar. Lightly whisk together with a fork. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes while you gather your other dough ingredients.
- Now add in 1 1/2 cups of flour, the oil, and the seasonings. Mix on low speed for 3-4 minutes. Add the remaining 1/2 cup of flour and continue to mix until the dough for another 3 minutes (or until the flour is combined and starts to form into a ball).
- Form the dough into a ball with your hands and add it to a well oiled bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it sit in a warm spot for about an hour. The dough will double in size.
- After an hour, roll out the dough onto a floured surface. The dough should be rolled into a medium/large rectangle.
- Time to add the pizza toppings! Add a layer of pizza sauce, then layer the pepperoni, then add the cheeses.
- Slowly roll the dough into a log, pressing in the sides as you roll it up. Cut it into 6 rolls. Place the rolls down flat in a greased 8x8 inch pan.
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. And let the rolls rest for 15 minutes while your oven preheats.
- Bake in preheated oven for 22-25 minutes. Enjoy!
