Equipment
- large baking sheet
- parchment paper
- frying pan
- wooden spoon
- Rolling Pin
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef or vegan ground beef alternative
- ½ cup chopped onion
- 8 ounce can of tomato sauce
- ¾ teaspoon Italian seasoning blend
- 2 cups freshly shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 pound prepared uncooked pizza dough
- 1 egg, beaten with a splash of milk
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400℉ and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Brown ground beef and onion in a large frying pan until fully cooked. (Beef is done when it reaches 165 ℉ when tested with instant read meat thermometer).
- Stir in tomato sauce and Italian seasoning until well blended. Continue cooking for 2 to 3 minutes until heated through. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
- Divide pizza dough into 6 equal sized balls. On a lightly floured surface roll each dough ball into a rough circle shape about 1/4 inch thick. Spoon about ⅓ cup filling onto half of the rolled pizza dough and top with ⅓ cup shredded cheese. Fold dough over to cover filling and seal edges well with a fork. Repeat with each dough ball.
- Transfer each hand pie to prepared baking sheets and brush well with egg wash and poke with a sharp knife or fork to vent each pie. Bake in 400℉ oven for 15 to 20 minutes, until pizza dough is nicely puffed, golden and cooked through.
