DETROIT-STYLE PEPPERONI PIZZA



Detroit-Style Pepperoni Pizza image

Scratching your head? Let us explain: Detroit pizza has an extra-thick crust that's crispy on the outside and pillowy on the inside and a top that's covered from edge to edge with melted mozzarella, slices of pepperoni and a healthy shake of Parmesan. Where the cheese spills over the edge, it bakes into the crust, so that signature crust gets crisper still when baked. Rumor has it, auto workers created this style by baking their pies in deep metal trays cast off from the assembly line. While you can skip the industrial trays here, Betty's version is made in your 13x9-inch pan; this recipe stays true to the original's no-nonsense approach. Made with five ingredients, this pizza is ready to eat in 35 minutes. But be warned, it's likely to disappear even quicker.

PEPPERONI LOVER'S FRENCH BREAD PIZZA



Pepperoni Lover's French Bread Pizza image

An easy no-cook sauce works as a tangy base for pizzas of all kinds. Draining the tomatoes before seasoning ensures the sauce won't create any soggy bottoms, no matter what type of crust you build your pizza on. Use an equal amount of crushed or whole peeled tomatoes instead of diced if that's what you have on hand. Just use your hands to break whole tomatoes up a bit (and drain off any additional liquid). The sauce will keep, tightly covered in the refrigerator, for about 5 days. But feel free to use your favorite jarred marinara in its place. Leftover pizza reheats beautifully in a 350-degree oven until warmed through.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 (14-ounce) can petite diced tomatoes, drained
1 garlic clove, grated
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon olive oil
A few grinds of black pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
2 garlic cloves, grated
1 loaf soft French bread, split lengthwise, insides mostly dug out
4 ounces mozzarella, low-moisture and part-skim, or fresh (drained and patted dry, if necessary), grated or torn (about 1 cup)
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan, plus more for serving
2 ounces sliced pepperoni, quartered (about 1/2 cup)
Red-pepper flakes or dried oregano, or both, for serving

Steps:

  • Make the sauce: Heat the oven to 450 degrees with a rack in the middle position. Combine tomatoes, garlic, salt, oregano, olive oil and black pepper in a medium bowl, and stir to combine. Set aside until ready to use.
  • Prepare the pizza: Combine the 1/4 cup olive oil and garlic in a small pot over medium heat. Cook, swirling occasionally, until the garlic starts to sizzle, but doesn't brown, about 2 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Place the French bread cut side up on a baking sheet. Brush cut sides with garlic oil. Bake until edges are golden, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Toss together the mozzarella, Parmesan and pepperoni in a medium bowl. Divide tomato sauce between the two bread halves all the way to the edges and top with pepperoni and cheese.
  • Return to the oven and bake until melted, about 5 minutes. Increase heat to broil and broil (watch carefully!) until the cheese is bubbly and browned in spots, 1 to 2 minutes more. Let cool 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Serve topped with more Parmesan, red-pepper flakes and oregano, if you like.

Tips:

  • Use a pre-made pizza crust to save time and effort.
  • Be creative with your toppings. Any breakfast food can be used, such as scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, or pancakes.
  • Don't overload the pizza with toppings. Too many toppings will make it difficult to cook evenly.
  • Bake the pizza at a high temperature so that the crust is crispy and the toppings are cooked through.
  • Serve the pizza immediately, while it is still hot and fresh. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Pepperoni breakfast pizza is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a quick breakfast or brunch. With its crispy crust, savory toppings, and melty cheese, this pizza is sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a unique and satisfying breakfast option, give pepperoni breakfast pizza a try.
