Ingredients

Techniques
- water
- sugar
- yeast
- all-purpose flour
- olive oil
- salt
Let water, a little sugar and the yeast get foamy in the bowl; add the all-purpose flour, olive oil and salt.
Knead in the mixer three to five minutes once it comes together, until smooth and elastic; it may stick to the bottom but should clear the sides.
Scrape down the bowl, cover, and let double in size, about an hour or a little less.
- flour
On a floured surface roll into a roughly seven by fifteen inch rectangle.
Rolling a 7 by 15 rectangle
- ½ cup marinara sauce
- pepperoni
- basil leaves
- low moisture mozzarella, shredded
- Parmesan
Spread about half a cup of marinara modestly, then pepperoni (cook any vegetables first), basil leaves, shredded low-moisture mozzarella and a little Parmesan.
Filling: sauce, pepperoni, basil, cheese
Roll up from the long end into a long, skinny tube, tucking the dough over the filling.
Cut into 12 equal slices and place cut side down in a greased non-stick 12-cup muffin tin or paper liners.
Cover very lightly with plastic wrap and let them puff until they fill the cups and rise a little above the edge.
