CRISPY DEEP-FRIED PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat the oil to 365 degrees F. A deep-fryer is best, but if using a stove top method, fill a cast iron Dutch oven or heavy chicken fryer with oil about 4 inches deep.
• Roll dough out and cut it in half. Stir the oregano and basil into the pizza sauce. Slice the pepperoni. Spread half of the pizza sauce on half of each side, of the dough, add the cheese and pepperoni, distributing evenly. Apply a thin line of the water to the edge of the dough and fold each over onto itself and press to seal.
• Check the oil temperature and carefully add the pizza pockets. Cook for 2 minutes, turn over and cook for 1 minute more. Remove to a paper towel lined plate. Transfer the pizza to serving plates and garnish with remaining pizza sauce, Parmesan and fresh basil leaves.
• Combine all the dry ingredients in bowl of food processor or stand mixer. Or if by hand, combine in a medium bowl. Add the warm water to small glass bowl. Sprinkle the yeast over and let it sit for 10 to 15 minutes. Add oil and yeast mixture to dry ingredients and depending on method using, combine until a dough ball forms. For food processor, pulse on dough setting until dough is smooth and elastic. For stand mixer, slow speed until dough is smooth and elastic. For hand method, knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic. Form the dough into a ball. Lightly oil a large bowl, add the dough ball to it, cover tightly with plastic wrap or a well-floured tea towel, and set in a warm place or a 100 degree F oven until doubled, about 1 hour.
• Punch down, and let rest for 5 minutes. Divide the dough in half for 2 large pizzas or into 4 equal pieces for calzones or small individual pizzas. Roll the dough into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Cooks Note: Can be made ahead and also freezes well.

S'MORE PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Form the pizza dough into two 12-to-14-inch rounds, 1/4 inch thick. Bake, preferably on a pizza stone or pizza pan, for 4 to 6 minutes, or until just beginning to brown. Leave the oven at 400 degrees F.
• While the pizza crust is baking, toast the almonds in a medium dry skillet over medium-high heat. Transfer the almonds to a plate to cool.
• Melt the butter in the skillet. Add the graham cracker crumbs, chili powder, cayenne and salt. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the crumbs are well coated. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• For each pizza, top the crust with half of the marshmallows and scatter half of the chocolate over the marshmallows. Return to the oven for 3 to 5 minutes, until the marshmallows are puffed and lightly browned. Sprinkle the pizza with half of the graham cracker mixture and top with half of the almonds. Let rest 3 to 4 minutes, slice and serve. Repeat to make the second pizza.

AUTHENTIC ITALIAN PIZZA DOUGH RECIPE - RECIPES FROM ITALY

Steps:

• In a large bowl mix 1/2 the flour and the baking powder. Then add the water a little at a time. Mix thoroughly with a spoon to combine all the ingredients.
• Now add the oil and mix well. Then add the remaining flour. Add it a little at a time and stir for 4-5 minutes, while continuing to use the spoon. Finally add the salt and mix.
• When the dough no longer sticks to the bowl, place it on your work surface dusted with flour. Knead 1 to 2 minutes with your hands. Then make a smooth, floured ball.
• Place the pizza dough back into the bowl. Cover it with plastic wrap. Then place a kitchen towel over it. Let rise at room temperature for 1 hour.
• Turn the dough out onto the floured table. Use flour if the dough sticks to your hands. Now press the dough a little with the palms of your hands to stretch it slightly. Bring the left flap almost to the right flap and vice versa. The same for the other two flaps. So, the upper flap almost to the lower flap and vice versa. This strengthens the gluten mesh without overstressing the dough. Finally shape into a ball.
• Grease the baking pan. Place the dough in the center of the baking pan. Now brush the surface of the dough with a tiny bit of oil and cover with plastic wrap. Put the baking pan in the oven with the light bulb on for 2 to 3 hours. It has to double its volume.
• With your hands and fingertips, start pressing from the center of the dough, trying to bring the dough up to the corners of the baking pan.
• Season with tomato passata, salt, oregano and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
• Bake at 250°C (482°F) for 8 minutes then add mozzarella. Finish baking for another 7/8 minutes

PIZZA DOUGH

Steps:

• Combine the bread flour, sugar, yeast and kosher salt in the bowl of a stand mixer and combine. While the mixer is running, add the water and 2 tablespoons of the oil and beat until the dough forms into a ball. If the dough is sticky, add additional flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together in a solid ball. If the dough is too dry, add additional water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Scrape the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead into a smooth, firm ball.
• Grease a large bowl with the remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil, add the dough, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and put it in a warm area to let it double in size, about 1 hour. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide it into 2 equal pieces. Cover each with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let them rest for 10 minutes.

THE FOLDED PIZZA PIE APPLE DOUGHBOY WITH CINNAMON GLAZE

Steps:

• For the dough: Stir together yeast, 1 cup warm water and 1 teaspoon granulated sugar to a stainless steel bowl. Whisk together and let sit for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Add flour, oil, salt, remaining 1/2 cup water, 2 teaspoons sugar and yeast mixture to a stand mixer and stir to incorporate. Mix together on medium speed until all ingredients have been mixed well, 5 to 8 minutes. Portion dough into four 1-pound pieces and place in 4 freezer bags. Freeze immediately to stop the rising process. Dough is ready to use after 30 minutes in freezer. Thaw fully before using.
• For the apple filling: Melt 7 tablespoons butter in a 4-quart pot. Add apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring mixture frequently to avoid scorching, until al dente.
• Meanwhile, make a roux by melting remaining tablespoon butter in a small skillet over medium-low heat. Once butter is melted, add flour. Turn the heat to medium and cook, stirring, until golden brown. Remove from heat.
• Add roux to apple mixture, little at a time, until desired consistency is achieved. Transfer apples to a cookie sheet to cool.
• For the cinnamon glaze: Place candy in a saucepan and enough water to cover. Let stand until candy has mostly dissolved, then heat mixture to a medium boil, stirring frequently. Cook until a thin syrup-like texture is achieved, about 15 minutes. (Candy mixture is extremely hot and can cause severe burns! Handle with care! If mixture is too thin, cook a little longer; if mixture is too thick, add a little more water.) Let cool and pour into a squeeze bottle.
• For the doughboy: Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Roll a 5- to 6-ounce ball of thawed dough into a 4-inch square. Place 2 tablespoons apple filling in center of dough. Stretch opposite sides of dough up and pinch to seal until a rectangular "apple pillow" is made. Brush with butter, dust with cinnamon sugar and bake until golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes, Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
• Serve immediately with vanilla ice cream; drizzle cinnamon glaze over doughboy and ice cream. Then, enjoy!
