Derek's English Muffin Pizza


After Derek went to scout camp he tried to convince all of us how great these pizza's were. We were all a little skeptical based on his description of them but when he volunteered to make dinner one night I let him have at it. They were so yummy and I'm not a pizza fan. Making these is easier with the large Canadian Bacon slices and they are a little thicker and yummier but as you can see from our picture we used the small ones this time - the store was out of the big ones. It can be a little tricky to flip over but it still worked and tasted yummy.

english muffins (1 muffin =2 pizzas)
pizza sauce
pepperoni rounds
large canadian bacon rounds (as big as the muffin)
cheese
optional toppings (pineapple, olives, onion, peppers)

*cut open the muffin and spread both sides with pizza sauce, add the pepperoni rounds, cheese and any other toppings you want, then. . . add the large canadian bacon round last.

*in a hot pan sprayed with pan spray (you can also use the pancake grill if you are making alot of them) set your muffin pizza in to cook with the muffin on the pan. After 2-3 minutes, carefully turn the pizza over and cook on the canadian bacon side for about 2 minutes until lightly grilled.

we had these growing up, but we broiled them in the oven-they were always a favorite!

They look interesting. I'll add them to my book of recipes to try.

I introduced these to the girls at girl's camp and it was a huge hit. They requested them every year after that. We never flipped them over to grill the top though. But we had stoves with tops so maybe that just cooked the top enough. I have never made them at home but I think I just might start.
