The pizza muffins were an experiment, but I must say they were a big hit and really tasty!
Have you ever tried making muffins with pizza dough?
I filled them with sausage meat, but of course, you can fill them however you like.
Pizza is always a good idea that you can never say no to and these muffins are a great alternative to classic pizza.
With the dough that we usually use as a base for pizza, we can create many variations and I think this is one you can’t miss trying.
If you make any of my recipes, send me the photos and I will publish them on my page with your name.
So, what are you waiting for? Let’s get to work and make my super delicious pizza muffins!

Add 150 g of “0” flour, mix, then add salt, sunflower oil, add more flour until it is all combined and a well-mixed dough is obtained.
Leave to rise in the container, covered with plastic wrap for at least 2 hours and until doubled.
Once risen, transfer the dough to a floured work surface and work it until a compact but soft dough is obtained.
Pass the tomatoes through a food mill, put them in a bowl and season with extra virgin olive oil, salt, and oregano, and set aside.
After the resting time, with a muffin pan, take the dough, roll out pizza circles about 6 inches in diameter
place each in a hole of the muffin pan, season first with the prepared tomato, then with sausage meat, and finally grate the smoked provolone on top.
