You need these, I need these, literally everyone needs these. These are the perfect appetizer for any party, bbq, or holiday.
I could seriously live off of Pizza I think. Nate and I were discussing a few weeks ago what food we would pick if we could only have one type of food for the rest of our lives. I, of course, picked pizza. There are just so many ways you can make it and so many different flavor profiles that can be touched on. I have exhibit A right here!
This recipe takes pizza Friday to a whole new level! Not only are they small and easy to eat on the go, they are also so easy to make from home and super cost efficient compared to the expensive prices a lot of pizza places charge now a days!
Ingredients:
- pizza dough
- cherry tomatoes
- bunch of garlic
- olive oil
- feta cheese
- mozzarella
- spinach
- oregano
Kitchen Appliances:
- casserole dish
- cast iron skillet
The Steps:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a casserole dish add cherry tomatoes and a bunch of garlic with the top cut off. Drizzle olive oil over the tomatoes and the top of the garlic bunch. Bake for 30 minutes. On a clean counter, spread flour evenly. Roll out pizza dough in a rectangular shape. Once the tomatoes and garlic are roasted, remove the casserole dish from the oven and increase the oven temp to 425 degrees. Once cooled, squeeze the garlic from the bunch into a bowl and mash. Spread the mashed garlic evenly on the pizza dough. Mash the tomatoes so they break in the casserole dish. Evenly spread the tomatoes over the pizza dough. Evenly sprinkle feta cheese and mozzarella cheese over the tomatoes. Spread the spinach on top. Roll the pizza dough away from you. Cut into 8 even pieces. Place the pinwheels in the cast iron skillet leaving a little space in between each pinwheel. Bake for 20-22 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle oregano on top. Allow to cool about 3 minutes before serving.
Can I make this recipe without creating a pinwheel?
Yes! This recipe works great for a traditional pizza! You just might have to slightly adjust the baking times!
Can I use homemade pizza dough?
Absolutely! Again, this may change the baking time as different doughs cook differently. For reference, I used a pre-made dough from the grocery store.
