Mummy Pizza Bites

Jennifer S.
If you don't like olives, like I don't, you can use small pepperoni, green or red pepper circles, or even small meatballs for eyes.


English muffins
Pizza sauce
Black olives
Scallions
Red or green pepper
Cheese sticks

Instructions
Heat the oven to 350º F.
For each mummy, spread a tablespoon of pizza sauce onto half of an English muffin.
Set olive slices in place for eyes and add round slices of green onion or bits of red or green pepper for pupils.
Lay strips of cheese (we used a pulled-apart cheese stick) across the muffin for the mummy’s wrappings.
Bake for about 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the muffins are toasty.

Kevin's Pizza Dough

Carmen H.

1 1/2 cups quick pizza dough
4 cups shredded 100% whole-milk mozzarella cheese (1 lb.)
4 ounces meat such as thinly sliced salami or pepperoni
3 to 4 cups thinly sliced vegetables such as red onions, mushrooms, bell peppers, or pitted ripe olives
2 to 4 tablespoons seasonings such as chopped fresh jalapeño chilies or minced garlic (optional)

Preparation
1. Let pizza dough stand at room temperature until almost doubled and no longer cold, 30 minutes to 1 hour. Coat two 14-inch pizza screens (see notes) or pizza pans with cooking oil spray.
2. Remove dough from bags; coat with flour. On a lightly floured board, roll each ball into a 10-inch round.
3. Shake excess flour from dough. Following "Tossing Tips,", included in Kevin's Pizza Dough recipe, toss each round until it is stretched to 14 inches. Or lay each on a floured board and gently stretch to 14 inches. Lay crusts on prepared pizza screens or pans; don't press dough down.
4. Spread 3/4 cup quick pizza sauce over each crust to within 1 inch of edge. Let stand, uncovered, at room temperature up to 3 hours. Shortly before baking, distribute half the cheese, meat, vegetables, and seasonings over each crust.
5. Set screens or pans on the bottom rack or on a heated baking stone (see notes) on bottom rack in a 500° oven (one at a time if you have only one oven). Bake until crust is browned on the bottom (lift one edge to check), 10 to 15 minutes. Slide each pizza onto a board and cut into wedges.

Pizza Hut Original Pan Pizza Crust

As a kid, my favorite part about Sunday afternoon was going to the Pizza Hut lunch buffet with my mom and brother. We all loved the buttery, rich and thick pan pizza crust. Now you can make it at home!

Ingredients
• 1 1/3 cup warm water (105 degrees F)
• 1/4 cup non-fat dry milk
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 4 cup flour
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 1 package dry yeast
• 2 tablespoon vegetable oil (for dough)
• 9 ounce vegetable oil (3 ounces per pan)
• Butter flavored Pam

Instructions
1. Put yeast, sugar, salt, and dry milk in a large (2 quart.) bowl. Add water and stir to mix well.
Allow to sit for two minutes. Add oil and stir again. Add flour and stir until dough forms and flour
is absorbed. Turn out on to a flat surface and knead for about 10 minutes.
2. Divide dough into three balls. In three 9-inch cake pans, put 3 ounces of oil in each making sure
it is spread evenly. Using a rolling pin, roll out each dough ball to about a 9-inch circle. Place in
cake pans.
3. Spray the outer edge of dough with Pam. Cover with a plate. Place in warm area and allow to
rise for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.

Pizza Hut Thin Crust Pizza Dough

The crust for this Pizza Hut classic has to be made ahead of time, and is easily enough for at least two 16-inch pizzas, or more depending on how thin you roll the dough.

Ingredients
• 2 cup water
• 1/2 teaspoon yeast (proofed in water)
• 4 cup flour
• 3 tablespoon olive or vegetable oil
• 1 1/2 cup cake flour
• 2 teaspoon salt

Instructions
1. Combine all ingredients in a mixer and knead for 10 minutes. Place in large bowl and cover with
plastic wrap. Allow to ferment as long as possible (12-24 hours). Punch down dough now and
then when you get the chance.
2. Preheat oven to 550 degrees F.
3. Roll the dough as thin as desired. (roll, flour and flip, until you end up with a shape equal to 90%
the size of your pan, as it will stretch when you transfer the dough. (make sure you oil your pan)
4. For regular pizza, add your toppings and bake for 10 minutes. However, since this particular
recipe was meant for light toppings, you'll need to oil the crust, then prick it with a fork and pre-bake
for 3 minutes. Now remove from oven, add your favorite toppings and return to oven for
10-15 minutes or till cheese is bubbly and outer edge of crust is a light golden brown.

This is a family favorite. As a little girl, my mom would make this every year for breakfast on Christmas morning. We carried on the tradition in our own family and thought that I would share it with you!

Layer in order:

1 pkg. Crescent Rolls
1 lb. Bulk Sausage - cooked and drained
1 C. Hashbrowns - frozen

Mix and pour on top:

5 Eggs
1/4 C. Milk
1/2 tsp. Salt
1/8 tsp. Pepper
2 T. Parmesan Cheese - grated

Finish with:

1 C. Cheese - shredded

Bake at 375 for 30 minutes, then I broil it for about 5 minutes. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before cutting into it
