There are certain kinds of doughy snacks we all love to nosh on, but in anyone’s list of top five you’ll undoubtedly find pizza and pretzels. Although many a pizza maker has earned points for creativity by baking various fillings into the edge of the dough, has anyone ever tried to capture the essence of a pizza inside a pretzel? And could there be anything more tempting alongside a frosty mug of your favorite beer? We feel compelled to find out!
Pizza Pretzel
Ingredients
- 1 ready-made pizza dough
- 100 g ham, in small cubes (pancetta also works nicely!)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 cup grated parmesan
Instructions
- Roll the pizza dough out and cut it into eight equal strips.
- In the middle of each strip, carefully sprinkle the cubed ham and mozzarella. Now press the sides together so that the ham and cheese is nicely sealed in.
