Savory Bacon
Green Pepper Cheese Pizza

Create the ultimate comfort food with this homemade bacon and cheese pizza. Featuring a golden crust, stretchy mozzarella, and savory bacon, every bite is satisfying.

Ingredients

• 150 g all-purpose flour
• 1.5 g yeast
• 10 g sugar
• 1 g salt
• 80 ml water
• 10 ml olive oil
• 4 slices bacon
• 80 g mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 onion
• 0.5 green bell pepper
• to taste tomato pasta sauce

Instructions

1. 1Mix the dough ingredients

   

   Combine the all-purpose flour, yeast, sugar, salt, water, and olive oil in a stand mixer bowl. Use the dough hook attachment to mix the ingredients on a low speed until they come together into a smooth, cohesive ball of dough.

   Tip: Ensure your water is lukewarm to help the yeast activate properly.
2. 2Prepare the pizza base

   

   After the dough has proofed and been rolled into flat rounds, arrange them on a baking sheet. Use a pastry brush to apply a thin, even layer of tomato pasta sauce over the surface of each dough round, leaving a small border for the crust.

   Tip: Poke small holes in the dough with a fork before adding sauce to prevent large air bubbles from forming while baking.
3. 3Slice the toppings

   

   On a wooden cutting board, carefully slice the half onion and half green bell pepper into thin strips. Also, cut the four slices of bacon into bite-sized pieces, ensuring all your toppings are prepped and ready for assembly.

   Tip: Keep your knife sharp for cleaner cuts on the vegetables and to slice through the bacon easily.
4. 4Assemble the pizza

   

   Distribute the sliced bacon, onions, and green bell peppers evenly over the tomato sauce base. Finally, sprinkle a generous layer of mozzarella cheese over the top of the toppings, ensuring good coverage for a cheesy finish.

   Tip: Dont overload the center of the pizza with too many vegetables to ensure it bakes through evenly.
