Slow Cooker Pizza
This recipe is super easy and my kids loved it!
Ingredients:
1. Pizza Dough (I purchase ready made from the grocery store)
2. Olive Oil
3. Choice of toppings
Directions:
1. Spray inside of slow cooker with cooking spray.
2. Stretch/roll out dough to roughly the size of the bottom of your crock (slightly more). I'm lazy. I stretch it a
bit and then put it in the crock and then stretch it along the bottom and up the sides a bit.
3. Drizzle with olive oil.
4. At this point I generously shake some parmesan cheese on top (love the taste and texture) and then I
added peperoni.
5. Put a kitchen towel or a few folded paper towels under the lid to collect moisture.
6. Crock on high for 2-4 hours. Check at 2. I checked at 2 and a half and a corner of mine was over
done. If your crock heats unevenly you may want to turn it and hour in to get even cooking. I wish
I had remembered to do that.
7. 5 minutes before I'm ready to pull it out sprinkle with mozzarella cheese (Mmmmm!).
I haven't attempted to add sauce to the top of the pizza before crocking. I'm going to try it soon. I set out pizza or marinara sauce for the kids to dip their pieces in. I'm also going to try it with black olives next time. Can't wait!
