Prep time 15 Min | Cook Time 15 Min | Serves 4-6
Ingredients
- 1 package Active Dry Yeast
- 1/2 tsp Sugar
- 1/2 tsp Fine Sicilian Sea Salt
- 2 cups Flour
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
- 3/4 cup Warm Water
- 1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 cup Mozzarella Cheese
- 1/4 cup Pizza Sauce
- 1 cup, Ham, chopped
- 1 cup, Pepperoni, chopped
- 1 cup Romano Cheese, grated
Directions
- In a large mixing bowl, add the flour. Create a well in the center of the flour and pour the water into the center.
- Next, add the salt only to the flour portion of the bowl. (Do not mix it into the water, it will be mixed later.)
- Add the sugar and yeast to the water and start stirring the yeast in the water.
- Then, in small increments, gradually mix the flour in with the water.
- As the dough begins to form, add the flour to the surface on which you will be kneading the dough.
- Then, take the dough out of the bowl and continue working it by hand. If the dough is too sticky, add flour in small increments until the dough no longer sticks to your hands or the kneading surface. Knead the dough thoroughly until it becomes smooth.
- Then, place a small amount of extra virgin olive oil on the bottom of a bowl to prevent the dough from sticking and place the dough into the bowl.
- Cover the dough with plastic wrap and set it aside until the dough has completely risen (this usually takes about 15-20 minutes).
- To tell if the dough is fully risen, make a small indentation in the center. If the indentation does not rise, then the dough is ready.
- Preheat the oven to 450F.
- Roll out the dough into a 11×13 inch rectangle on a floured surface.
- Combine the garlic powder with olive oil and brush onto the dough.
- Add the ham and pepperoni, then evenly spread the pizza sauce and top with Romano cheese.
- Carefully roll the dough into a log, pinching the ends to close.
- Cut the log into 2-inch sections and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until browned on top.
- Let the pizza rolls cool for 5 minutes before serving.
