Cheesy Pizza Muffins: An Ultra-Easy Recipe

Cheesy Pizza Muffins: An Ultra-Easy Recipe…

Friends of Granny Tricks, let’s start with a premise: are you ready to get your hands in the dough? Today we decided to combine two iconic preparations in one recipe, to say the least: American muffins and pizza! The result? The legendary pizza muffins: super soft and irresistibly stringy, made with instant yeast.

Ingredients:

  • 200g (1⅔ cups) all-purpose flour
  • 1 packet (about 2 teaspoons) instant yeast for savory baking
  • 60ml (¼ cup) extra virgin olive oil
  • 200g (7 oz) ricotta cheese
  • 3 large eggs
  • 120ml (½ cup) tomato passata (pureed tomatoes)
  • 130g (1 cup) Emmental cheese, grated
  • About 10 sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • Dried oregano, to taste
  • Salt, to taste

How to prepare Cheesy Pizza Muffins:

  1. In a bowl briefly process the ricotta to soften, add the eggs and mix with a hand whisk. Pour in 50 g EVO oil, incorporate it well and add the tomato puree as well.
  2. Adjust the salt and add the sifted flour and baking powder. Now insert the diced Emmental, the sun-dried tomatoes previously softened in warm water and squeezed, and the oregano. Mix everything together well.
  3. Pour the mixture into lightly oiled molds, leaving a few mm from the edge. Pour a few drops of EVO oil on the surface of each and bake in a static oven preheated to 180°C (340°F) for 25-30 minutes. Always do the toothpick test before baking.

Bon Appétit!
