How To Make pull-apart pizza

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 400°F. Brush Large Round Stone with Handles with 1 tsp of the oil. Place one package of the dough onto Large Grooved Cutting Board. Using a sawing motion, cut dough in half lengthwise with Color Coated Bread Knife; slice each dough half crosswise into 16 half moons for a total of 32 half moons. Repeat with remaining dough. Arrange dough over baking stone, leaving a 1/2-in. border around edge and spacing 1/2 in. apart; brush with remaining oil. Bake 14-16 minutes or until crust is golden brown.

    Remove baking stone from oven to Stackable Cooling Rack. Using Rotary Grater, grate half of the Parmesan cheese over crust; top with antipasti. Bake 5-7 minutes or until mozzarella cheese is melted. Remove from oven; grate remaining Parmesan cheese over top and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
