Dough and Toppings

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Dough

    In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well. Add the vegetable oil and warm water, and stir until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  2. 2

    Roll Out the Dough

    Divide the dough into two equal portions. Roll out each portion to fit a baking sheet, about ½ inch thick. Place one rolled-out dough on a greased baking sheet.

  3. 3

    Add Toppings

    Spread the refried beans evenly over the dough. Sprinkle the ground cumin and chili powder over the beans. Top with the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese, followed by chopped green onions.

  4. 4

    Bake

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake the sopapilla pizza for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Cut into slices and serve with sour cream, salsa, and cilantro if desired.
