I decided to divide my pizza dough in thirds and make the pie in an 8 inch cast iron pan. I used a combination of fresh mozzarella and packaged Kraft. The parm was fresh grated. Toppings consisted of mushrooms and sausage. I rolled out the dough fairly thin for deep dish, about the thickness you would expect from a normal style pizza. For the mushrooms, I chopped them up in a food processor then sauteed them (I had the processor out anyway to grate the parm). It came out pretty good although I'm going to make a note on my recipe card to hydrate the dough a little more next time I make it. I had enough for dinner and enough left for tomorrows lunch.
BevM, I love Libbies Oatmeal Coconut cookies. I haven't made them in a few years, I should put them on my to bake list.
Today I made burger buns. I also made a slightly modified version of KAF Deep Dish Pizza Dough. I plan on making pizza tomorrow and Saturday. My modifications are, I reduced the butter and salt and especially the yeast. KAF loves to load up their recipes with yeast. I am of the opinion that pizza dough should have a minimal amount of yeast. KAF calls for 2 3/4 tsp, I reduced it to 1 1/2 but I'm thinking one tsp is probably enough. I also used a combination of semolina, whole wheat and AP flours. Anyway, I let it raise for a bit at room temp and have it tucked away in the fridge now. I'll use half of it tomorrow, I'm going to make the pizza in a 10 inch cast iron pan. The recipe is for one 14 inch pizza so I think I'll be able to get two 10 inch pies out of it.
