Pesto Christmas Tree Bread https://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/pesto-christmas-tree-bread/ Fri, 27 Oct 2023 10:50:57 +0000 https://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/pesto-christmas-tree-bread/

Ingredients

  • 1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
  • 3/4 cup warm 2% milk (110° to 115°)
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 3-1/4 to 3-3/4 cups all-purpose flour, divided
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup prepared pesto
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten, optional
  • Optional garnishes: Sliced cherry tomatoes, star-shaped cheese slices, fresh basil and marinara sauce

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water; let stand until bubbly, 5-7 minutes. In large bowl, combine milk, butter, egg, yeast mixture, 2 cups flour, sugar and salt; mix until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough (dough will be sticky).
  2. Turn dough onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
  3. Preheat oven to 375°. Punch down dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide into 2 portions. Roll 1 portion into a 15x11-in. rectangle on parchment paper. Leaving parchment paper underneath it, transfer dough to a baking sheet. Spread with pesto and sprinkle with Parmesan. On a lightly floured surface, roll remaining dough into a 15x11-in. rectangle; carefully place over pesto-topped dough.
  4. Arrange the pan so a short side is facing you. Mark the center of the top edge of the rectangle with a shallow indention as a reference point (this will be the top point of the tree shape). From top center point, cut diagonal lines to lower left and right corners of the rectangle (forming a long triangle that creates the tree shape).
  5. Using a 2-1/2-in. star-shaped cutter, cut stars out of the 2 smaller triangles of dough that are outside the main tree shape; transfer stars to another parchment-lined baking sheet. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 15 minutes. If desired, brush stars with beaten egg. Bake until golden brown, 12-14 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
  6. Meanwhile, remove and discard scraps from dough triangles where stars were cut, leaving only large tree shape on baking sheet. Mark a 1-in.-wide column down center of tree for trunk with a shallow indention as a reference. Starting at the bottom of the tree, cut 1-in.-wide strips on both sides of trunk, cutting perpendicular to marked center column and stopping about 3 in. from top point of tree.
  7. Remove bottom 2 strips from left and right side of center column, creating base of trunk. Twist remaining strips (longer strips twice and shorter strips once), pressing ends gently onto the parchment. Cover and let and let rise in a warm place until almost doubled, about 30 minutes.
  8. If desired, brush tree with remaining beaten egg. Bake until golden brown and cooked through, 15-18 minutes. Remove from oven; cool on pan for 10 minutes before removing to wire rack to cool. If desired, garnish with baked bread stars, tomatoes, sliced cheese stars and basil. Serve with warm marinara sauce or additional pesto.

Copycat Pretzel Crust Pizza Tips

Does this recipe taste like Little Caesar’s Pretzel Crust Pizza?

One of the mysteries of the corporate world is when a company discontinues a much-loved item. The Little Caesar’s pretzel crust pizza was one of those things. It has become a cult classic and is coveted by many when it’s rereleased occasionally. While Little Caesar’s doesn’t share the recipe, we feel this pretzel crust pizza recipe comes pretty close. We’re not sure if this is the same method they use to achieve that characteristically dark, salty exterior you look for in a delicious soft pretzel, but our Test Kitchen went gaga over it when it came out of the oven.

Can you make pretzel crust pizza with premade pizza dough?

We feel homemade pizza dough always tastes better than store-bought, but we completely understand not everyone has the time to mix, proof, and roll out their own dough every time they want pizza. If you’re short on time, go ahead and use premade pizza dough. Just follow the package directions. When ready, just proceed with the pizza recipe as directed.

Can you swap regular pizza sauce for the cheese sauce?

This pretzel crust pizza recipe is delicious no matter how you top it (but the cheese sauce really does make it just like Little Caesar’s version). However, if you’d like to use your own homemade pizza sauce or your favorite store-bought sauce, go ahead; we won’t say a thing!

Ingredients

  • 1 package (6-1/2 ounces) pizza crust mix
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
  • 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 1 large tomato, thinly sliced
  • 4 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
  • 1/3 cup loosely packed basil leaves

  2. Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil over dough and sprinkle with sliced garlic. Bake until crust is lightly browned, 10-12 minutes.

Pizza Caprese Tips

Can you make your own crust for pizza caprese?

Absolutely! This pizza caprese recipe starts with uncooked dough, so you can substitute a homemade pizza dough without changing the recipe at all. You can also start with a precooked crust, French bread or a soft flatbread, such as naan—just skip the prebaking step and start by adding the toppings.

What else can you put on pizza caprese?

Pizza is the ultimate add-what-you-like food—so experiment with toppings! Popular add-ons to any caprese recipe include artichokes, ripe olives and avocados. For an elegant touch, drizzle your pizza with a balsamic glaze. It’s easy to make; just combine balsamic vinegar and a sweetener—brown sugar, honey or maple syrup—in a small saucepan. The proportions depend on your taste; you can use anywhere from just 1 Tbsp. sweetener per 1 cup vinegar all the way to a 1:1 ratio. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until it's reduced by about 1/3.

What's the best way to reheat pizza caprese?

Don’t even think about using the microwave—we’ve found the best ways to reheat leftover pizza are in the oven, on a foil-lined pan, or in a skillet on the stovetop.

St. Louis-Style Pizza https://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/st-louis-style-pizza/ Tue, 02 Feb 2021 07:45:50 +0000 https://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/st-louis-style-pizza/ Taste Recipes Test Kitchen]]>

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 8 to 10 tablespoons water
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2/3 cup crushed tomatoes in puree
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 12 ounces Provel cheese, shredded or 1-1/2 cups shredded white cheddar plus 1 cup shredded provolone plus 1 cup shredded Swiss
  • 1 package (3-1/2 ounces) sliced pepperoni
  • 1 small green pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking powder and salt. Stir in water and oil until combined. Turn onto a lightly floured surface. Gently form into a ball. Cover and let rest 10 minutes. Divide dough in half. On parchment, roll each half into a 10-in. circle. Transfer (leaving dough on parchment) to a 12-in. pizza pan.
  2. Preheat oven to 425°. Combine crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, sugar, basil and oregano; spread over pizzas. Top with cheese, pepperoni, green pepper and onion. If desired, sprinkle with additional dried basil and oregano. Bake on a low oven rack, 1 at a time, until bottom of crust is golden and cheese is lightly browned, 15-20 minutes. Cut into squares.

St. Louis-Style Pizza Tips

What kind of cheese is on St. Louis-style pizza?

A St. Louis-style pizza recipe uses Provel cheese. Provel cheese is a processed blend of cheddar, Swiss and provolone that originated in St. Louis. It melts at a low temperature, which means it stays ooey-gooey after the pizza is out of the oven and on the dinner table.

What is the best flour for pizza dough?

To get that cracker-thin crust just like Imo's Pizza, we recommend using all-purpose flour. If you don't have any all-purpose on hand, you can use two cups of self-rising flour instead. (Here's more on all the different types of flour.) Start with just 6 tablespoons of water and add more from there. Pro tip: Roll your dough on parchment paper for an easy transfer to the pizza pan. You don't want to break that extra-thin dough!

How do you store St. Louis pizza?

Just like other pizza recipes, we recommend storing your slices individually wrapped in aluminum foil in the refrigerator. Pizza typically lasts for about three to four days using this method. Once you're ready to dig in again, follow our tips on how to reheat pizza so it tastes as good as day one.

What toppings should I add to St. Louis pizza?

Since the crust is super thin, we recommend adding just a few lighter pizza toppings like pepperoni, green pepper and onion. Too many toppings can create a soggy pizza—so you'll want to avoid this common pizza mistake. Be sure to sprinkle some Italian herbs on top, too. Or you could switch things up by trying one of these unusual pizza toppings!

Ingredients

  • 1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
  • 3/4 cup warm 2% milk (110° to 115°)
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3-1/4 to 3-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup prepared basil pesto
  • 6 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, divided
  • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomato pesto
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • Optional: Additional grated Parmesan cheese, torn fresh basil, basil pesto and marinara sauce

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. In a large bowl, combine milk, egg, butter, sugar, salt, yeast mixture and 2 cups flour; beat on medium speed until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough (dough will be sticky).
  2. Turn dough onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
  3. Punch down dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide into 4 portions. Roll each into a 12-in. circle. Place 1 circle on a greased 14-in. pizza pan. Spread with half the basil pesto to within 1/2 in. of edge; sprinkle with 2 tablespoons Parmesan. Place second circle of dough on top; spread with sun-dried tomato pesto and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons Parmesan. Top with third circle of dough, remaining basil pesto and remaining 2 tablespoons Parmesan; top with final portion of dough.
  4. Place a 2-1/2-in. round cutter on top of the dough in center of circle (do not press down). With a sharp knife, make 16 evenly spaced cuts from round cutter to edge of dough, forming a starburst. Remove cutter; grasp 2 adjacent strips and rotate twice outward. Pinch ends together. Repeat with remaining strips.
  5. Cover with a kitchen towel; let rise in a warm place until almost doubled, about 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 375°. Bake until golden brown, 18-22 minutes. Remove from oven; brush with melted butter, avoiding areas where pesto is visible. Cool completely on a wire rack. If desired, sprinkle with additional cheese and basil before serving and serve with pesto and marinara.

    Ingredients

    • 1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
    • 1 teaspoon sugar
    • 1-1/4 cups warm water (110° to 115°)
    • 1/4 cup canola oil
    • 1 teaspoon salt
    • 3-1/2 to 4 cups all-purpose flour
    • 1 can (15 ounces) tomato sauce
    • 3 teaspoons dried oregano
    • 1 teaspoon dried basil
    • 2 cups toppings of your choice (like sliced pepperoni, cooked crumbled sausage, chopped onion, sliced mushrooms, chopped green pepper or sliced olives), optional
    • 2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

    Directions

    1. In large bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in water; let stand for 5 minutes. Add oil and salt. Stir in flour, 1 cup at a time, until a soft dough forms.

    Homemade Pizza Tips

    What is the best flour for pizza dough?

    All-purpose and bread flour work great for pizza dough. But if you want to take your dough to the next level, try double zero flour. Learn more about each type of flour in our flour guide.

    What type of sauce goes on pizza?

    You can’t go wrong with classic red sauce, like our homemade pizza sauce. Want to switch it up? Give white pizza, spicy BBQ chicken pizza or any of these unique pizza recipes a try!

    Which cheese is best for pizza?

    The best cheeses for pizzas are ones with low melting points and low moisture content, such as mozzarella, provolone and cheddar. A blend of cheeses offers fantastic flavor!

    How do you make pizza dough crispy without a pizza stone?

    If you don’t have a pizza stone, assemble your pizza on a piece of parchment paper. While assembling, place your sheet tray in the oven while preheating. Once you’re ready to cook, slide the parchment onto the sheet tray. The hot tray will give your crust the jump start it needs to become crispy.

    Apple Crisp Pizza https://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/apple-crisp-pizza/ Fri, 08 Sep 2017 00:00:00 +0000 http://origin-www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/apple-crisp-pizza/

    Ingredients

    • Dough for single-crust pie
    • 2/3 cup sugar
    • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
    • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    • 4 medium baking apples, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch slices
    • TOPPING:
    • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
    • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
    • 1/3 cup rolled oats
    • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    • 1/4 cup butter, softened
    • 1/4 to 1/2 cup caramel ice cream topping or caramel apple dip
    • Vanilla ice cream, optional

    Directions

    1. Preheat oven to 350°. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to fit a 12-in. pizza pan; fold under or flute edge. In a large bowl, combine sugar, flour and cinnamon. Add apples and toss. Arrange apples in a single layer in a circular pattern to completely cover crust. Combine first 5 topping ingredients; sprinkle over apples.
    2. Bake until apples are tender, 35-40 minutes. Remove from oven; immediately drizzle with caramel topping or dip. Serve warm with ice cream if desired.

    Test Kitchen Tips
  • Steer clear of one-dimensional apples like Red Delicious. Look for varieties that are both tart and sweet and stay firm after baking, such as Braeburn, Granny Smith or Honeycrisp.
  • Make-ahead tip: In our busy photo studio, we cut apples the day before and brush with lemon lime-soda to keep them from browning.
  • Homemade and store-bought pie pastry work equally well in this recipe.
  • Dough for single-crust pie

    Combine 1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour and 1/4 tsp. salt; cut in 1/2 cup cold butter until crumbly. Gradually add 3-5 Tbsp. ice water, tossing with a fork until dough holds together when pressed. Shape into a disk; wrap and refrigerate 1 hour.
