Ingredients

  • 20 pepperoni each cut into 8 wedges
  • 2 1/2 to 2 3/4 cups flour
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons yeast
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup water
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil plus 1 more tablespoon
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese plus 2 more tablespoons

Instructions

  • Combine 1 cup flour, yeast sugar, salt, garlic powder, 1/4 cup Parmesan, and Italian seasoning in a larger bowl.
  • Heat water until 120 to 130 degrees F. Add the water, 3 tablespoons olive oil, and pepperoni to the flour mixture.
  • With a wooden spoon mix the ingredients until well combined. 
  • Gradually add the remaining flour until the dough is slightly sticky. As I add the flour I work it in by my hand. 
  • Knead the dough until smooth and slightly sticky. Set in a warm place, cover, and let it rest for about an hour or until double in size.
  • Grease a 10-inch cast iron skillet. Once the bread is raised to double in size, punch down. Divide the dough into 12 equal parts.
  • Form into balls and arrange in the skillet. Let rest for about 1/2 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Just before the bread goes into the oven brush it with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese.
  • Bake for 25 to 27 minutes or until bread is browned. Remove from oven and enjoy.
