Ingredients
- 2 x 220g portions of The Northern Dough Co. Pizza Dough
- 100g Sainsbury’s Tomato and Basil Pizza Topper
- 100g grated mozzarella
- 1 x 100g pack German pizza pepperoni
- olive oil
- 1 tablespoon hot honey, to serve
Step by step
-
Defrost the dough according to pack instructions, then bring to room temperature (about 1 hour).
-
Preheat the oven to 200°C, fan 180°C, gas 6 and grease 10 holes of a muffin tin. On a large sheet of baking paper, roll out one ball of dough to a 25cm x 15cm rectangle. Cut into 5 long strips, each 3cm wide. Repeat with the second ball of dough. Separate the strips slightly, then lightly spread with the Pizza Topper and scatter over the grated mozzarella. Cut the pepperoni slices in half. Arrange the pepperoni along the lengths of each pastry strip, so that the slices overlap and the rounded sides rise halfway above the edge, leaving a gap at one end. Loosely roll up each strip into a rose shape and then place into the greased muffin tin so that the pepperoni ‘rose petals’ face upwards.
-
Lightly brush the exposed dough with olive oil, then bake for 22-25 minutes until golden and cooked through. Ease out of the tin with a palette knife onto a serving plate, then drizzle with about 1 tablespoon of hot honey to serve.
