Easy, Homemade Foldover Pizzas
Easy, Homemade Foldover Pizzas
Pizza Dough,,or your favorite recipe
2 packages active dry yeast
1 1/2 cups warm water
3 3/4 to 4 cups flour
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon sugar
Filling
2 tablespoons butter
4 garlic cloves, pressed
2 medium green peppers, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1 pound bulk sausage
4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (16 oz)
2 cups shredded Asiago cheese (8 oz)
1/2 teaspoon pepper
12 cherry tomatoes cut in half
Dough
In a large bowl dissolve the yeast in the water. Stir in the flour and remaining ingredients. Adding a little more flour if needed to make the dough easy to knead. Knead for about 10 minutes. Place the dough on a lightly floured surface. Cover and let rise in a warm place for about 20 minutes. Punch down and refrigerate for about two hours.
To make the pizza dough a breeze, I add all the ingredients to my bread machine and use the dough setting. When it is done I put the dough on a lightly floured surface and cover for about 10 minutes and proceed to make the volcano pizzas.
Filling
While the dough is rising, prepare the filling. Chop the veggies.
Fry the sausage, onions, peppers, and garlic in the butter over medium high heat stirring frequently until the sausage is brown and the veggies are tender. Refrigerate until cool.
Add the tomatoes, pepper, and cheeses to the cooled meat mixture. Divide filling into thirds.
Place the filling more to one side of the pizza dough circle.
Gently lift the pizza dough and fold over the filling. Press the edges together to seal. Poke a few holes on top or make a small slit to help let the steam out when cooking. Do the same for all three pizzas.
Bake in a 350 degree preheated oven for 30 minutes or until golden brown.
