Quick Pizza Tongues

Quick Pizza Tongues — a dinner-saver recipe when time is short and you crave something tasty: I prepare quick pizza tongues without any leavening. Thin, crispy and super versatile, they are ready in a snap and can be filled in a thousand ways, just like a real pizza.
The lack of leavening makes them perfect for those who are short on time. A simple dough, ready in a few minutes, that bakes quickly and gives an irresistible texture. And to dress up a buffet just cut them into triangles — you’ll make a great impression.

Now let’s go to the kitchen and I’ll show you how to make the Quick Pizza Tongues

  • Divide the dough into 3 portions. Flatten each portion and gently stretch with your hands to obtain an elongated shape. Transfer the pizza tongues to a baking tray lightly oiled or lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

    Spread a few tablespoons of tomato purée on top, drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle with oregano and salt.
    Bake in a preheated oven at 482°F for about 12 minutes, until the edges are golden and crispy.
