Substitution
Feast Pepperoni Pizza from Domino's Pizza copycat menu replicates the iconic combination of spicy pepperoni, melted mozzarella, and tangy tomato sauce on a hand-tossed crust. You can substitute the bread flour with all-purpose flour if necessary, though the texture might be slightly less chewy. Using a pizza stone instead of a pizza pan helps achieve a crispier crust by evenly distributing heat. If you don't have a dough docker, pricking the dough with a fork can prevent bubbling during baking. Consider adjusting the amount of pepperoni to suit your spice preference and dietary needs.
Tips
Make sure to let your pizza dough rise fully until doubled to achieve a light, airy crust with optimal chewiness. Use a dough docker after rolling to prevent large air bubbles that can disrupt even baking. When spreading sauce and cheese, apply them evenly to avoid soggy spots and ensure balanced flavor across your Feast Pepperoni Pizza. Use oven mitts when handling hot pans or pizza peels to protect your hands during transfer and removal from the 475degF pizza oven.
Nutritions
Feast Pepperoni Pizza from Domino's is rich in protein and calcium, mainly from the mozzarella cheese and pepperoni slices. The bread flour dough provides carbohydrates for energy, while the olive oil adds heart-healthy fats. Your meal will also contain sodium from the pepperoni and salt, so balancing with other low-sodium foods throughout the day is advisable. This pizza delivers a satisfying mix of macronutrients, making it a flavorful and filling option.
Storage
Store your Feast Pepperoni Pizza leftovers in an airtight container or tightly wrapped in aluminum foil to maintain its crispy crust and prevent moisture loss. Refrigerate within two hours of baking and consume within 3-4 days for optimal taste and safety. Reheat in the pizza oven or conventional oven at 375degF (190degC) for 5-7 minutes to restore the melted cheese and crispy texture.
Variation or Alternatives
You can experiment with swapping pepperoni for spicy chorizo or Italian sausage to introduce a different savory heat profile while maintaining a similar texture. Incorporating a blend of mozzarella and provolone cheese enhances meltability and adds a subtle smoky flavor to the pizza. For a crispier crust, try par-baking the rolled-out dough for 3-4 minutes before adding toppings and finishing the bake. Using a pizza stone instead of a pan can improve heat distribution and yield a more evenly cooked and crispier crust.
Allergies
Your Feast Pepperoni Pizza from Domino's contains common allergens such as wheat in the bread flour and pizza dough, and dairy from the mozzarella cheese.
