Description

These Mini Football-Shaped Pizzas are perfect for game day gatherings, providing a fun and delicious twist on traditional pizza.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 Wholly Wholesome Traditional Organic Rolled Pie Dough
  • 1 Cup Pizza Sauce
  • 1 Small Package Pepperoni Slices
  • 4 oz Mozzarella Cheese
  • 1 Egg beaten with 1 tbsp of cold water

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Roll out the pie dough on a floured surface and cut into football shapes using a cookie cutter.
  3. Place the football-shaped dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  4. Spread a tablespoon of pizza sauce on each dough shape.
  5. Top with pepperoni slices and a sprinkle of mozzarella cheese.
  6. Brush the edges of the dough with the beaten egg mixture.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
  8. Remove from oven, let cool for a few minutes, and serve warm.

Notes

  • Use a football-shaped cutter for consistent shapes, or shape the dough by hand.
  • Avoid adding too much sauce, as excess moisture can make the crust soggy.
  • Customize with cooked sausage, finely chopped bell peppers, olives, or your favorite cheese.
  • For a football-lace effect, add thin strips of mozzarella on top after baking.
  • Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven until warmed through.
