If you are a fan of Detroit style pizza you'll love this great no-dough pizza hack. Butter and parmesan on the bottom of the bread caramelizes to create a delightful crunch while the top is soft.
Ingredients
- 6 slices Italian bread
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.5 cups Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
- 0.67 cups pizza sauce
- 6 ounces mozzarella cheese
- 18 slices pepperoni
Instructions
-
1
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
2
Spread butter generously on both sides of the bread slices and set them out on the prepared baking sheet. Freshly grate Parmigiano-Reggiono cheese on top of each bread slice, pressing the cheese lightly into the butter so it sticks better. Turn bread slices over, so cheese side is down. Top with pizza sauce, making sure to spread it evenly on top of the slices.

3
Bake in the preheated oven until bottoms start to turn golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.
-
4
Top with mozzarella and 3 pepperoni slices each (or toppings of your choice). Bake until mozzarella has melted and bottom crust is crispy and well browned, 10 to 12 minutes more.

Chef John's Chocolate Chip Cookies
Crispy around the edges, chewy and chocolaty in the middle, and thin, oh so thin. My 'secret' formula has been adapted from Alton Brown's famous, 'The Thin' recipe, and is fairly foolproof. The only real variable is the baking time, since we all scoop slightly different amounts. And yes, of course you can add nuts to yours!
Mini Key Lime Pies
Nothing tastes better than key lime pie made with fresh key limes. This one is really tasty and super simple to make. Mini pies are great because everyone can have their own.
Sweet Corn Bread
This cornbread recipe goes well with just about anything. I always make it when we have chili. The sour cream makes it nice and moist.
