DETROIT STYLE
DEEP DISH PIZZA
Detroit style pizza is cheesy, fatty, crispy and dangerously addictive!
Characterised by its rectangular shape and baked in a deep pan.
We baked 4 pizza doughs in a roasting pan with 5cm deep walls. You want to bake the pizza long enough for the cheese to get crispy and brown on the edges.
With only three toppings this pizza is so easy to make – pizza sauce, mozzarella and pepperoni. Pair with a pint of beer and you’re set!
Ingredients:
-
4 x Sugo tu Pizza Doughs
-
Sugo tu pizza sauce 150g
-
2 cups shredded Mozzarella
-
100g pepperoni
-
Olive oil
Notes:
-
Use a deep dish baking tray with 5cm walls. Our roasting pan dimensions were 32.5 x 22.5 x 5.5cm.
-
IMPORTANT - Give your dough time to proof up in the pouch until it is like a soft pillow and has at least doubled in size.
-
Baking time may take longer depending on the depth of the dish you use.
-
For a smaller size use two or three doughs
-
For extra crispy edges bake for an extra 2-3 minutes
Method:
1) Pre-heat the oven to 220C.
2) Thaw the dough and let it double in size - DO NOT STRETCH.
3) Generously oil your baking pan
4) Gently place the doughs in the pan and join together by pinching the edges together and push the dough to the edges
5) Top with pizza sauce, mozzarella and pepperoni - take the cheese to the edges of the pan so that it crisps up.
6) Bake for 8-10 minutes until the edges are golden brown. You will know it is baked when it springs back quickly and is nice and golden brown.
Baking time may take longer depending on the depth of the dish you use. Our roasting pan dimensions were 32.5 x 22.5 x 5.5cm.
Enjoy!
