Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup warm water (110°F)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 8 oz string cheese sticks (cut in half)
- 1 cup pizza sauce
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- Toppings of your choice (pepperoni, veggies, etc.)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
- Add flour, salt, and olive oil to the yeast mixture. Knead until smooth and elastic, about 5-7 minutes.
- Cover the dough with a kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes or until doubled in size.
- Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
- Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a large circle. Place the cheese sticks along the edge of the dough and fold the dough over to seal the cheese inside.
- Transfer the stuffed dough to a greased pizza pan. Spread pizza sauce over the surface and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
- Add your favorite toppings on top of the cheese.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
- Allow to cool for a few minutes, slice, and enjoy!

Handy Tips
- Make sure the water is warm, not hot, to activate the yeast properly.
- Feel free to customize the toppings to your preference for a personalized touch.
- Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing to prevent the cheese from pulling off.
Ingredient Swaps
- All-Purpose Flour: Use whole wheat flour for a healthier option.
- Cheese Sticks: Substitute with mozzarella balls or shredded mozzarella for easier handling.
- Pizza Sauce: Use homemade tomato sauce or pesto for a different flavor.
