Fresh Milled Sourdough Pizza Toast
Ingredients
- 1 fresh milled sourdough bread from my basic loaf recipe
- 150 g pizza sauce
- 120 g cooked ham prosciutto cotto, diced or thinly sliced
- 120 g mozzarella shredded
Method
- Set your oven to broil (top heat only) at 220–230°C (430–450°F).
- Slice the loaf into about 10–12 slices. Aim for slices that are not too thick so they crisp up nicely, but still sturdy enough to hold toppings.
- Optional pre-toast (recommended): If your bread is very fresh or soft inside, place the slices on a baking sheet and bake them for 3–4 minutes at 200°C (390°F). This helps prevent soggy centers later.
- Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over each slice.
- Add the cooked ham, then top with shredded mozzarella.
- Return the slices to the oven and broil for 5–8 minutes, until: the cheese is melted and bubbling; the edges of the bread are lightly crisp
- Keep a close eye on them here, since broilers can brown quickly.
- Let them cool for a minute or two, then cut each slice diagonally into triangles.
Notes
- Don’t overload the toppings. Around 10–15 g per slice is enough to get that perfect balance between crispy bread and melty topping.
- You have not enough Humanizer words left. Upgrade your Surfer plan.
- add that i cut up cooked ham into small squares. also, say that i like to use proscutto cotto (cooked proscuto) but ham works too
- This is one of those things I make when I have a loaf on the counter and don’t feel like overthinking lunch or snacks. It’s quick, it uses what I already have, and once you cut it into triangles, it suddenly feels like something you’d actually serve to guests.
