I called this recipe "pizza buns" for lack of a ameliorate title. Actually, it tin give the sack live whatever flavour filling that y'all like. The "magic" is inwards the dough; it is on the slightly sweetness side but (as unlikely every bit it sounds) it compliments a savory filling perfectly.
.
Originally, this was a dough that my High German Russian ancestors used for a hot too savory ham too sauerkraut sandwich. I decided to experiment alongside diverse fillings too they accept been such a large hitting alongside Hubby that I've made them twice this week. I've made calzones for years, but these are thus much better...not bready or doughy at all too the dough raises simply plenty (as it bakes) to brand the perfect sandwich...light, crispy too delicious.
3/4 loving cup really warm water
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated)
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons sugar
1 large egg (room temperature)
3 1/2 cups all travel flour
2 tablespoons dry out active yeast
1 teaspoon salt
Mix the warm H2O (hottest out of your tap) alongside the sweetened condensed milk, vegetable fossil oil too saccharide too salt. The hot tap H2O volition cool downwards inwards temperature 1 time it is mixed alongside the fossil oil too milk (so it won't wound the yeast). Next, whisk inwards the egg too the yeast. Let this sit down for several minutes until the yeast looks good dissolved.
NOTE: When y'all starting fourth dimension mix upwardly this dough, it volition seem rigid too dense. Don't permit that freak y'all out...just follow the instructions too it volition bake upwardly beautifully.
Once it is good dissolved, mix inwards the flour (using a stand upwardly mixer is easiest) too mix alongside dough claw on medium speed until polish (about v minutes or so). Place inwards a bowl sprayed alongside vegetable spray too encompass alongside plastic wrap. Let this sit down inwards a warm house for an threescore minutes or until it is double inwards size.
.
Remove from the bowl too cutting into 8 pieces (makes 8 sandwiches). Roll each slice out into an 8 inch circle. For pizza filling, position the ingredients inwards IN THIS ORDER: about ¼ loving cup of cheese inwards see of circle; top alongside a piddling pizza sauce too some toppings.





NOTE: Remember that the order, inwards which y'all position ingredients into this bun, is of import because later y'all pinch the bun shut, y'all plough it upside down. So...if y'all position the cheese inwards FIRST, when it melts, it volition melt downwards over the meat which is what y'all desire rather than the melted cheese beingness UNDER the meat. Does that brand sense?
NOTE: These sandwiches remain super hot for an unbelievable length of time, thus they would live fantabulous for a potluck or picnic (they are also fantabulous at room temperature). This dough recipe makes 8 big sandwiches, but y'all could easily brand them smaller for snack size.
.
NOTE: I accept plans on making these, using Sloppy Joe filling, barbecue beef filling, bacon too egg filling too much more. I tin give the sack meet a 1 M m possibilities.
.
NOTE: The fully baked leftovers (full size) reheat, beautifully, inwards a preheated 350F oven inwards 20-23 minutes too sense of savour precisely similar they did the starting fourth dimension time they came out of the oven.
