Sausage and Mushroom Mini Pizzas

Sausage and Mushroom Mini Pizzas
  • 2 tablespoons cornmeal
  • 1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 1 3/4 cups whole wheat flour, divided
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce
  • 1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 8 ounces bulk Italian sausage, cooked and drained
  • 1 cup thinly sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 8 ounces shredded Italian blend cheese
  • Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
  • Snipped fresh basil (optional)
  • Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Foil


  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Cover two large baking sheets with Reynolds Wrap(R) Heavy Duty Foil. Sprinkle with cornmeal.
  2. Stir yeast into 1 cup warm water and let stand for 5 minutes or until puffy. In a large bowl, combine 1 1/4 cups whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, sesame seeds and salt; add yeast mixture and olive oil. Use a wooden spoon to stir dough together. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead in enough additional whole-wheat flour (1/4 -1/2 cup) to make moderately stiff dough that is smooth and elastic (3 to 4 minutes total).
  3. Divide dough into 8 equal portions. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes. Roll each portion of dough on a lightly floured surface into a 6-inch circle. Transfer to prepared baking sheets. Prick the crusts with a fork. Do not let rise.
  4. Bake about 7 minutes or until light brown. In a small bowl, combine pizza sauce and crushed red pepper. Top each crust with pizza sauce, then with sausage and mushrooms. Sprinkle with Italian blend cheese. Bake 5 minutes more or until cheese melts. If desired, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and/or fresh basil.
  5. To Grill: Line grill rack with Reynolds Wrap(R) Heavy Duty Foil. Preheat grill; reduce heat to medium-hot. Brush tops of dough circles with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Place dough circles, oiled sides down, on foil-lined grill rack. Cover and grill about 1 minute or until bottom is browned and firm. Transfer dough circles to a clean surface, grilled side up. Assemble pizzas and return to the foil-lined grill rack. Cover and grill 2 to 3 minutes or until bottom is browned and cheese has melted, rearranging pizzas as necessary to assure even browning.
