Viennese Pizza with Sausage and Peppers

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Main Courses Quick Meals
While Italy is the home of pizza, 'Pizza Viennese' is the result of Austria's proximity and love for sausages. It's a favorite among kids and those who love hearty flavors. The sliced wiener sausages curl up into little cups while baking, crisping at the edges, pairing perfectly with the simple sweetness of onions and peppers.

Instructions

1 ✓

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Slice sausages into rounds, onions into thin half-moons, and peppers into strips.

Tip: Don't slice the sausage too thin or it will dry out. Aim for about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick.
2 ✓

Roll out the dough to fit your pan. Spread with tomato sauce, leaving a small rim.

Tip: Room temperature dough stretches much easier than cold dough because the gluten is relaxed.
3 ✓

Sprinkle with mozzarella, then arrange the sausage rounds, onions, and peppers on top.

Tip: Place cheese under the veggies so they roast directly in the hot air rather than steaming.
4 ✓

Sprinkle with oregano and drizzle with a little oil. Bake for 12-15 minutes until sausages are browned at the edges and crust is golden.

Tip: The sausage skin tightens in the heat, causing the slices to cup—this collects delicious roasted juices.
5 ✓

Serve immediately while cheese is stretchy.

Tip: Careful, the sausage rounds hold heat inside!

Recipe FAQ

What kind of sausage should I use?
The classic recipe calls for 'Würstel'—high-quality Wiener sausages or Frankfurters. A good quality hot dog works well. Smoked farmer's sausage might be too tough.
Won't the onions burn?
If sliced thinly, they caramelize beautifully. If you're worried, put them under the cheese.
