INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 200 degrees for 15 minutes and turn off. Combine yeast,
sugar and warm water in a small mixing bowl. Set aside for 5 minutes until
foamy.  In the workbowl of a food processor, add flour, butter pieces and
salt. Process for 20 seconds.  Add ice water to yeast. With the processor
running, add yeast-water mixture gradually, until all of the moisture is
absorbed and the dough leaves the side of the bowl. Process for an
additional 60 seconds. Transfer dough from the workbowl to a large greased
mixing bowl. Cover with a kitchen towel and place in warm off oven. Allow
to rise until doubled, approximately 1 1/2 hours.
Combine the ricotta and Parmesan. Punch down the risen dough and transfer
to a floured rolling surface. With quick, hard strokes, roll dough into a
large rectangle, approximately 1/2 inch thick. Layer one- half of the
mozzarella cheese evenly down the center leaving approximately three inches
of exposed dough on either side. Top with the ricotta mixture and
pepperoni, and the remaining mozzarella. Overlap the exposed dough over the
cheese mixture and pinch well on all sides to seal.
Transfer to a large cookie sheet, seam side up.  Cover with a kitchen towel
and return to the warmed oven. Allow to rise until doubled, approximately
45 minutes. Brush loaf with melted butter and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Bake at 350 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes or until loaf is well browned and
hollow sounding when thumped.

A Message from our Provider:

“If thankfulness does not move us to serve God, then we do not truly understand who our God is and what He has done in our behalf. Without gratitude for Christ’s sacrificial love, our duty will become nothing more than drudgery and our God nothing more than a dissatisfied boss. #Bryan Chapell”
