Quick Corn Meal Pizza
Here’s a mother-daughters recipe for a fast and easy and delicious pizza pie. Elizabeth, Sofia and Maddalena Masciale-Walmer put this pizza together in about an hour. The crust is baked first, then the toppings are added and the pie is baked a second time to melt the cheese and heat the sauce. All in all, this cooking session lasted an hour and a half and we were cleaned up, fed, and out the door in two –hours tops!

You can use a rolling pin but if dough sticks to the pin you need to use more flour. Too much flour gives your dough a tough texture and you can’t get it really thin so it will be really crispy. But maybe you don’t care about crispy because using a rolling pin is a lot of fun.
| Take it out
Bake at 425 degrees for 15-20 minutes, depending on thickness.
(We like it really thin and crispy. The thinner the crust the faster it gets brown and maybe too crispy).
of the oven, add sauce and your favorite toppings
then return to the 425° oven for 15-20 additional minutes.
