PIE PIZZA RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Put the pizza dough in a medium bowl and coat well with 1 tablespoon of the oil. Cover with plastic wrap and put in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour depending on the dough.
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Put the garlic, bell peppers and onions in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped, scraping down the sides of the bowl halfway through.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Add the onion mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until the moisture has evaporated from the pan and the onions are soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in the marinara sauce, oregano, red pepper flakes, 1/4 cup water, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of black pepper. Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat to medium low and cook, uncovered, stirring often, until thick, about 15 minutes.
• Brush the sides and lip of a 1-quart (6-inch) ramekin with the butter. Line the bottom and sides with the Havarti. Fill with 1 1/2 cups of the hot marinara-sausage sauce. Reserve the remaining sauce for another use. Gently pull and stretch the pizza dough into a 10-inch circle and place it over the ramekin, leaving a 2-inch overhang all around. Gently press around the edges of the ramekin to lightly seal. Put on a baking sheet and bake until golden brown and the top sounds hollow when you tap it, about 30 minutes.
• Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven, transfer the ramekin to a heatproof surface and place a plate on top. Carefully invert the ramekin onto the plate, using a spoon to gently pry the dough from the dish. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook rigatoni until just al dente according to package directions. Drain and rinse with cold water. Transfer to a large bowl. Add 1 tablespoon oil, ½ cup mozzarella, and ¼ cup Parmesan and stir to combine.
• In a small bowl, stir together ricotta, eggs, and milk and season with salt and pepper. 
• Build pie: Wrap the bottom of a 9" springform pan with foil. Brush pan with remaining 1 tablespoon oil, then spread ¼ cup pizza sauce on bottom of pan. Stand rigatoni upright in pan, tightly packing it in to fill. Pour over ricotta mixture and spread with a spatula, pressing down to fill rigatoni. Spoon over remaining pizza sauce, creating an even layer. Top with remaining 1 cup mozzarella and ¼ cup Parmesan and pepperoni.
• Place on a baking sheet and bake until deeply golden and bubbly, 30 minutes.
• Garnish with basil before serving.
