Yummy Cheese Bread

Pizza Crust:

1 pkg. (1/4 oz) active dry yeast

1 cup warm water (110-115)

2 tbsp. vegetable oil

1 tsp. salt

1 tsp. sugar

2 3/4 to 3 1/4 c. flour (I usually use whole wheat pastry flour or 1/2 all purpose and 1/2 whole wheat)

2 garlic cloves minced (optional)

1. In a mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Add oil, salt, sugar, garlic, and 2 cups flour.

2. Beat on medium speed for 3 minutes. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.

3. Turn onto floured surface; knead until elastic and smooth (about 6-8 min.).

4. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and place in a warm place for 10 minutes.

5. Place dough on a floured surface. Roll out to a 13 inch. circle. Place in pizza pan.

6. Cook in 350 oven for 10 minutes.

Topping ingredients:

2 tbsp. butter

2 tsp. dried basil

1/2 tsp. salt

2 tsp. garlic powder

1/4 c. parmesan cheese

1 cup (or more depending on how cheesy you want it) mozzarella/cheddar cheese

*These are approximate, I don't actually measure, I just "eye ball" it.

Melt butter and spread over cheese bread. Sprinkle rest of ingredients over top. Cook in 350 oven for about 10 minutes or until cheese is melted.

ENJOY!!!!!!
