2. Doughy Cheese Stuffed Peppers
You'll Need:
For the pizza dough:
- 8 oz flour
- 4 fl oz milk
- 1 tbsp oil
- 4 tsp fresh yeast
- ½ tsp salt
For the filling:
- 1 mozzarella ball
- 2 tbsp diced bacon
- 1 tbsp chopped rosemary
- 6 oz ricotta
Extra:

Here's How:
2.1 Preheat the oven to 400°F and prepare the dough. Dissolve the yeast in some milk and heat the remaining milk over medium heat. Mix the salt and oil and add the dissolved yeast and remaining milk. Stir everything until a dough ball forms. Cover the dough with a cloth and leave it in a warm place for 30-45 minutes.
Wash the peppers, cut off the stems, and remove the seeds. Combine the grated mozzarella, bacon, rosemary, and ricotta together and spoon the mixture into the peppers.
2.3 Once the dough has risen, knead it once more and shape it into a roll. Divide it into 2 equal pieces and flatten it out. Wrap a strip of dough around each pepper and place the wrapped peppers on a pan lined with parchment paper. Bake for 25 minutes, or until golden brown.
