Pizza Fritta 

As a child, I liked them - as an adult, I love them - "Pizza Fritta" or fried pizza dough is an Italian classic treat, that can be eaten any time of day, enjoyed on its own or as part of a meal, or an anytime snack. Simple to make and so tasty!! Enjoy
Dough Recipe
• Artisan Bread - simple...
“Pizza Fritta”
(i.e. fried pizza dough)
Ingredients
• Pizza dough (homemade or bought), grape seed oil or sunflower oil or veg. oil, salt to taste (optional icing sugar and maple syrup)
Method
• Cut off a small piece of pizza dough (about the size of an extra-large egg) and with your hands, form it into a thin roundish shape (i.e. about 5 - 6 inches in diameter)
• Put oil in fry pan, about ¼ inch deep and bring up to about 350 degrees F.
• Place round thin pieces of dough into the oil, cook on medium or medium/high heat and fry until golden - turn once, and fry other side till golden brown in color as well.
• Remove from pan - Add salt to taste and enjoy this traditional Italian treat 😊
• (optional - for “sweet” pizza fritta, you can use icing sugar instead of salt, or you can use maple syrup as well)
