Ingredients
- 2 cans refrigerated pizza crust
- 2 cups pizza sauce
- 1 small package sliced pepperoni
- 1 onion diced
- 1 green bell pepper diced
- 4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Equipment
- 10 inch Dutch oven
- 12 inch Dutch oven
Directions
- Unroll 1 can of dough onto a work surface then press out into a thin layer. Cut out three to four 8-inch (20cm) rounds.
- Partially bake for 5 to 8 minutes in the bottom of a 12-inch Dutch oven with 5 to 6 coals on the bottom (about 350 degrees F | 176 degrees C). Turn over halfway through to bake on both sides. No lid is used.
- Cut 2 long strips of dough at least 1/2-inch (1.3cm) wider than the height of a 10-inch Dutch oven. Carefully drape the long strips of dough around the inside edge of the pan to line, leaving a 1/2-inch (1.3cm) hanging over the outside edge of the pan and the bottom of the pan open. Pinch seams to seal.
- Carefully place one partially baked crust round in the bottom of the same 10-inch Dutch oven. Spread the pizza sauce over the crust.
- Top with pepperoni slices, diced onions, and green peppers. Sprinkle with 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese. Repeat to make 2 to 3 more layers.
- Fold the overhanging dough over the top layer of the pizza to make a raised crust edge.
- Bake for 30 to 40 minutes in 350 degree F (175 degree C) oven or until the dough around the pizza is fully cooked. Use 6 to 8 coals on the bottom and 12 to 15 coals on the top of the Dutch oven.
- Let cool for 5 minutes before removing from the pan.
