Parmesan Pizza Bites (Big Batch)

Parmesan Pizza Bites

Ingredients:

1 cup water
1 Tbsp  yeast
2 tsp honey
2 1/2 cups milk
1/4 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup honey
4 teaspoons sea salt
8 cups whole wheat flour (more or less as necessary)

Topping

1/2 Tbsp brown sugar

1 Tbsp Basil

1 Tbsp Oregano

1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese

Olive Oil

In a large bowl, mix 1 cup warm water, yeast, and 2 teaspoons of honey.  Stir this together and allow it to sit.  Meanwhile, heat butter, milk, 1/2 cup honey, and salt in a medium saucepan on the stove until mixture has reached 120°.  Stir contents in saucepan into the yeast mixture.  Begin adding flour, two cups at a time until a nice dough has formed.  Knead for 3-4 minutes.  Place dough in bowl, cover, and allow it to rise for 1-2 hours.

On a well floured surface, roll fistful sized balls of dough into “snakes.”  Cut into one inch bites.

Place on a baking sheet or stone.  No need to allow for rising time, but if they sit there a while, that’s okay too.  Bake in a 350° oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.

While pizza bites are baking in a small bowl mix together Parmesan, brown sugar, Basil and Oregano

Place baked pizza bites in a bowl, drizzle on some olive oil, toss until coated, then sprinkle sprinkle with Parmesan cheese mixture.  Serve warm, serve cold, or cool and freeze the bites in a freezer bag for up to three months.  Thaw and reheat in the oven.
