Muffin Pizza: Method
- Cut the mozzarella into small cubes and let it drain in a colander to remove excess liquid.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, yeast, and salt. Add the water and start mixing with a spoon. When the dough begins to form, continue kneading with your hands, first in the bowl and then on a floured surface, until you obtain a smooth and even dough.
- Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each piece with a rolling pin to form discs about 12 cm in diameter.
- Fill the centre of each disc with a few cubes of mozzarella and a spoonful of Mutti Sugo Speciale with Basil. Lift the edges upward and seal them well with your hands.
- Lightly grease an aluminium muffin mold with a kitchen brush. Place the stuffed muffins inside the molds, then arrange them in a muffin tray.
- Add a teaspoon of Mutti Sugo Speciale with Basil on top of each muffin and bake in the oven at 180°C for 20 minutes. Add a bit of mozzarella and another teaspoon of sauce, then bake again for another 7-8 minutes.
- Serve the muffins hot, finishing with a sprinkle of oregano.
