Everyone get excited! It's puffy pizza!

A few years ago there was this product that was a pizza made with a puff pastry crust out on the market that was supposed to be all the rage but has since disappeared from the shelves. Today I revive that recipe in a personal sized version.


Puff Pastry Pizza
Idea from President's Choice Puffy Pizza

1 box puff pastry, thawed and rolled out into a 10"x10" square
1 1/2 cups mozzerella cheese, shredded
1 1/2 cups pizza sauce (if you want to make your own, see recipe below)
various pizza toppings (as many different kinds as you like)

Preheat oven to 375F.

Cut puff pastry into 4 squares, each 5" x 5" in dimension.

Score a half inch border around the inside of each square using a knife, then make a criss cross design on the border.

Place each pizza onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Cover the inside area of each pastry square with pizza sauce taking care not to get any on the criss-cross border.



Chop your pizza toppings into tiny pieces, no bigger than a half inch square and mix it up in a bowl with the shredded cheese. Sprinkle the pizza toppings onto the pizza sauce section of the puff pastry and taking care to keep the toppings off the criss-cross area.



Place the baking sheet into the oven and bake for 30 - 35 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.



The crust is a nice light, flaky and buttery alternative to the regular doughy or crispy type crusts you normally get from pizza. It's sure to be a crowd pleaser the next time you have friends over for dinner. Posted by Hello
