KILLER PIZZA MUFFINS!



Killer Pizza Muffins! image

These muffins are seriously incredible and addictive. It took me a few tries until I found a perfect muffin-like crusty dough for these awesome pizzas. The dough turned out so fluffy and fun to work with. Pretty quick and easy, the only part that takes time is the rising process, which is about 30 minutes. All in all, you and your kids will love them, trust me!

Categories     Cheese

Time 1h25m

Yield 12 muffins, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 teaspoons dry yeast
3 tablespoons butter, softened
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 cup warm water
1 tablespoon sugar
2 1/2 cups flour
1 cup pizza sauce (I prefer Onion and Garlic flavored.)
1 cup grated mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Mix the cup of warm water with the sugar and dry yeast. Let stand 10 to 14 minutes.
  • Add the butter, salt and flour. Stir well, turn out and knead until dough is smooth. Cover and allow to rise in a warm place. Punch down and allow to rise again.
  • Cut dough into small-meduim sized balls, place each ball on oiled muffin tins, punch the ball with your thumb and spread the edges of the ball around the muffin tins to make a hollow muffin cup shape. Let rise again, press the edges to make sure they stick to their muffin cup figure.
  • Bake for about 20 minutes or until slightly golden. Bring out of the oven.
  • Press top of puffed muffins with the back of a spoon to create a slight dent. Spread the sauce and cheese or any other topping you have in mind. Bake until cheese is melted. Tada!

CHICAGO DEEP-DISH PIZZA MUFFINS



Chicago Deep-Dish Pizza Muffins image

Put down the fork and knife... here's a Chicago deep-dish pizza that you can actually eat by holding it in your hands! A beautiful golden crust contains a meaty, cheesy, saucy filling with Italian sausage, sweet peppers, and 3 types of cheese. The sauce and cheese char slightly on the outside as they bake, resulting in a super savory taste.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Pizza

Time 1h20m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 teaspoons olive oil
1 (16 ounce) package cold, prepared pizza dough
4 ounces provolone cheese, diced
¾ cup cooked, crumbled Italian sausage
½ cup cooked, diced sweet peppers
4 ounces mozzarella cheese, grated
½ cup prepared pizza sauce
¾ cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Generously grease a 12-cup standard muffin pan with 2 teaspoons oil.
  • Roll dough on a lightly floured surface to a thickness of 1/8 inch. Pick it up from the edges to make sure it's not stuck to the surface, then cut out twelve 4-inch circles. Reroll the dough to cut all 12 circles if necessary.
  • Place each circle into a prepared muffin cup, making sure it's centered. Press and push dough up the sides of the cups, getting close to, but not all the way up to the top. When all circles have been placed in the muffin pan, go around one more time to push and press on each one.
  • Put 1 tablespoon provolone cheese into each cup, followed by 1 tablespoon cooked sausage and 2 teaspoons cooked peppers. Lightly press on the fillings to compress, then top with 1 rounded tablespoon mozzarella cheese and 2 tablespoons pizza sauce, pushing the sauce down gently into the fillings; it's okay that the fillings will be slightly higher than the pan. Sprinkle Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese generously over top.
  • Bake in the upper center of the preheated oven until the tops are beautifully browned, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and cool in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes. Go around the edge of each muffin with a knife, then use a fork or small spatula to remove from the pan.
  • Let cool on a rack for a few minutes, then garnish with parsley and serve.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of flours to create different textures and flavors in your pizza muffins. All-purpose flour is a good starting point, but you can also try bread flour, whole wheat flour, or even almond flour.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different toppings. Pizza muffins are a great way to use up leftover ingredients, so feel free to get creative. Some popular topping ideas include pepperoni, sausage, bacon, vegetables, and cheese.
  • Be sure to grease your muffin tins before baking. This will help the pizza muffins to come out easily.
  • Bake the pizza muffins until they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.
  • Let the pizza muffins cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help them to hold their shape.

Conclusion:

Pizza muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or meal. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or a quick lunch or dinner. With so many different topping options, there is sure to be a pizza muffin recipe that everyone will enjoy.
