Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Activate the Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.

  2. 2

    Mix the Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt.

  3. 3

    Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

    Once the yeast mixture is frothy, add it to the flour mixture along with olive oil. Mix until a dough starts to form.

  4. 4

    Knead the Dough

    Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  5. 5

    Let the Dough Rise

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Assembly and Baking

  1. 6

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).

  2. 7

    Prepare the Dough

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into smaller portions (about the size of a golf ball). Roll each portion into a small round shape.

  3. 8

    Top the Pizzette

    Place each round of dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spread about 1-2 tablespoons of pizza sauce on each, leaving a small border. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese, then add pepperoni slices, and finish with dried oregano and red pepper flakes.

  4. 9

    Bake the Pizzette

    Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.

  5. 10

    Cool and Serve

    Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious pepperoni pizzette!
