Ingredients
Dough:
- 1 cup warm water (probably somewhere between 105º and 115º)
- 2 tbsp yeast
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp salt
Filling:
- 1/4 cup chopped mushrooms
- 1/4 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes
- 1/4 cup chopped black olives
- 1/4 cup chopped marinated artichoke hearts
- 1/4 cup pesto
- About 8 oz. of mozzarella cheese cut into cubes.
- Butter and Parmesan cheese for top.
Directions
Mix together the yeast and water and let it sit for a couple mins. Add the sugar, garlic powder, seasoning, melted butter, and oil then add the flour slowly mixing in your stand mixer with a dough hook then add the salt. Knead for 10 mins in the stand mixer or by hand. Let the dough rise in a greased bowl covered with a wet cloth for about 30 mins. Meanwhile combine all the filling ingredients except the cheese chunks. Pre-heat the oven to 375º and divide the dough into about 10 to 20 pieces or more. Flatten each piece of dough into a large disk and place a spoonful of the filling in the middle. Top that with a chunk of cheese. Then pinch the dough back together and place the roll pinched side down on a greased baking sheet. Continue with remaining dough. Bake at 375ºF for about 15-25 mins until the bread is golden brown . Brush with the some melted butter and parmesan cheese and cook for a few more mins. Serve with warm pizza sauce.
