Ingredients
1 pkg. (¼ oz.) active dry yeast (about 2-¼ tsp.)
1-¼ cups warm water (105°F to 115°F)
1 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. sea salt
4 cups flour
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1-¼ cups pizza sauce
8 oz. cooked ham, chopped
1 pkg. (8 oz.) shredded mozzarella cheese
-
1 tsp. Spicy Pizza Topping
Directions
Sprinkle the yeast over the warm water in a medium bowl; stir until the yeast is dissolved. Add the sugar and salt; mix well.
Place the flour in a large bowl. Add the yeast mixture and knead the dough with your hands until the ingredients are well blended. Add the oil and continue to knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. (The dough should not stick to your hands nor stick to the side of the bowl.)
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface, then knead the dough for 3 additional minutes.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl. Cover with plastic wrap, then let the dough rise in a warm place for approx. 1 hour or until the dough is doubled in volume.
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to a ¼-inch thickness.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, stopping about 1 inch from one of the long sides of the dough.
Top the dough evenly with the ham, then half of the cheese. Sprinkle with the Spicy Pizza Topping.
Roll up the dough starting at the long side with the sauce. Gently pinch the seams together to seal. Cut the roll of dough crosswise into slices.
Place the pizza rolls, cut sides up, in a single layer in a shallow baking dish; sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
Bake the rolls 20 to 25 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the rolls are lightly browned.
Serve warm.
Tips: Spice up the pizza rolls with your favorite pizza toppings, such as sliced black olives and/or drained canned chopped pineapple.
