Cook Method

Ingredients

4 servings
 
2 (7.8-ounce) packages round and thin pizza crust refrigerated dough
¾ cup marinara sauce, divided
1 (6-ounce) package HORMEL® NATURAL CHOICE® Uncured Sandwich Pepperoni, roughly chopped
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 large egg, beaten
Fresh basil leaves, for garnish if desired

Directions

  1. Heat oven to 425°F.

  2. Unroll pizza dough crusts. Using a 3-inch biscuit cutter, cut out the center of each round.

  3. Place one pizza dough crust ring on parchment paper lined baking sheet. Spread ring with 1/3 cup marinara sauce. Sprinkle with cheese. Top with pepperoni. Cover with second pizza dough crust ring, pinching edges to seal.

  4. Using a paring knife, cut 1 ½ -inch wide strips into wreath from the outside and stopping 1 ½-inches from the center all around. Gently turn each strip twice to create a twist, then press edges down on parchment. Repeat until all strips have been twisted.

  5. In small bowl, whisk egg with a few drops of water. Using a pastry brush, brush wreath with egg wash.

  6. Bake 18 to 22 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve with remaining marinara sauce. Garnish with basil, if desired.
