Kinnikinick Pizza Crusts

[Guest nini]

I LOVE Kinnikinick Pizza Crusts! I think they make the best quick pizza around! But I also like to do other things with them as they are soooooooo yummy! I'll share my ideas and if anyone else has any ideas that they've tried with them let me know!

Garlic Cheese bread, while still frozen, rub butter all over the top of the crust, sprinkle with garlic powder, and italian seasonings and then pile high with mozzerella cheese. Bake at 375 until cheese is melted and bubbly (about 12 minutes or so) Slice in half then slice in strips like Dominos garlic bread sticks. Dip in your fave. marinara sauce or eat plain

Italian Ham sandwich!!!! First toast pizza crust in oven til soft and brown, about 10 minutes at 350, slice down the middle, pile high with thin sliced Boars Head ham, Italian Seasonings and Provelone Cheese toast in oven til cheese is melted, fold in half and eat! WOW!!!!

ok, your turn!

That all sounds wonderful!!! Do those crusts come frozen? I will have to give them a try! The only pizza/crust I have tried since going gluten-free is the 6 inch Foods By George cheese pizza.

Thanks for sharing!

Sounds great! I make my own crust for Carleigh cuz we can't do the pre-made ones.

But, how about dessert pizza w/cinnamon sugar and melted margarine?

I also love those pizza crusts! They haven't been available around here lately and I've missed them!

[num1habsfan]

Ohh the garlic sticks is a good idea

I too love Kinnikinnick pizza crusts, ok well...I love EVERYTHING Kinnikinnick haha

I make weird pizzas sometimes, even once made a porkchop pizza. (with chunks of porkchops, red peppers, mushrooms, and cheese on top)

Now you make me hungry, and its only 10 in the morning

Can you share your pizza crust recipe? Mine is okay, but always looking for something better. Premade isn't an option for me either. Last time I made pizza I got distracted and left the baking powder out (it's a biscuit type crust) and it was like a giant dry noodle. My kids got a good laugh out of it at least as we scraped the toppings off.

yes they come frozen, 4 to a pack too... I'm addicted now. The store I get them at, can't keep them in stock though, which is really frustrating!

But, how about dessert pizza w/cinnamon sugar and melted margarine?

OOOOOOH that sounds yummy! I'll have to try that!

Why can't you? You can order from their website. Trust me, it's well worth it!

I just went to the Kinnikinnick website and placed an order. Has anyone tried the hamburger buns? I ordered them too.

I got the buns....I think they were basically like the Engish muffins. Both are great! This is unusual with gluten-free bread products, but both the buns and muffins are THICK....and have a soft nice quality. I always toast the English muffin (split in half--so big I can only eat a half at a time), but I thawed the bun and made a hamburger and it was quite good....my only complaint was that it was actually too thick for me!

I ordered the pizza crusts but haven't tried them yet. I'm glad to hear they're good!

Nini,

Thanks for the tip about the pizza crusts. I LOVE them! Just bought two packages today. I was mad that our store was out of my favorite. I LOVE their ENglish muffins too. Carole, I cut mine in to thirds and toast them this way. I think they are even better this way. I love them with poached eggs.

I haven't made garlic bread since going gluten free and I am going to try the cheesy garlic bread. SOUnds very yummy.

I love the hamburger buns, they are amazing! I think I love everything they make with the exception of their hot dog buns (they were awful)

Liz ~ Here is the recipe I adapted from www.savorypalate.com I put her original parts in () It is really easy.

Pizza Crust

1 tablespoon dry yeast

2/3 cup sorghum flour (2/3 cup brown rice flour or garbanzo/fava bean flour*)

1/2 cup tapioca flour

2 teaspoons xanthan gum*

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin powder (Knox)

1 teaspoon Italian herb seasoning

2/3 cup water (2/3 cup warm milk (110º) or non-dairy liquid)

1/2 teaspoon sugar or honey

1 teaspoon olive oil

1 teaspoon cider vinegar

Extra sorghum flour for sprinkling (rice flour)

A few extra Tbsp of water

Crust: Preheat oven to 425ºF. In medium mixer bowl using regular beaters (not dough hooks), blend the yeast, flours, xanthan gum, salt, gelatin powder, and Italian seasoning on low speed. Add warm water, sugar, oil, and vinegar.

Beat on high speed for 2 minutes. (If the mixer bounces around the bowl, the dough is too stiff. Add water if necessary, one tablespoon at a time, until dough does not resist beaters.) The dough will resemble soft bread dough. (You may also mix in bread machine on dough setting.)

Press into a greased pan (I use a round 9" cake pan). Bake pizza crust for 10 minutes. Remove from oven. Top Pizza Crust with sauce and your preferred toppings. Bake for another 15-20 minutes or until top is nicely browned.

what do the astricks mean?

We've tried every gluten-free pizza crust on the plantet, both pre-made and mixes. Although we think Kinnickinick's are the best, we don't like them very much. They kind of taste like cardboard to us. But we really do love the hamburger buns. They are way too thick, but we slice them into 4 slices and toast them. This tastes very much like a real English muffin, crispy outside and soft in the middle. We use this as the base for the kids' pizza. They love it! I toast one for myself and top it with a poached or fried egg and melted cheese. Delicious! Since my son's Celiac diagnosis 8 months ago, I've suffered the loss of bread in my life. But these Kinnickinick hamburger buns have actually filled the void somewhat.

I love these ideas .. I never thought of doing anything but pizza with them. I think I will try the Cinnamon, sugar, butter thing tomorrow. I haven't had cinnamon toast in 17 years! Well, maybe I won't wait until tomorrow ... bed time snack maybe

Hope you enjoy it!! I may make some too!! I have crust in the freezer right now!!

Vincent ~ I just went to savorypalate and made the adjustments. The * were a note saying that you could purchase xanthan gum at a HFS and something about BRM flours that I took out. Sorry for the confusion!! Try the crust!! It's egg-less!!

We make Manwich Sloppy Joes with the chopped meat. I put that on top of the pizza crusts. My kids call them "sloppy pizzas". It's messy, but very tasty.

Another one:

Soak overnight in scrambled eggs with Cinnamon, sugar and vanilla.

Will be squishy in the morning. Fry on a pan with Pam or butter.

Cut into triangles and serve with syrup or powdered sugar.

I'll bet you could use it for quiche crusts. Let it thaw, put it on the bottom of a round pie plate, add your quiche mixture (whatever you like) and bake. Hmmm.. I think I'll try that soon.

[MallysMama]

Thank you so much, Nini for those ideas!!! I just barely got my box from kinnikinnick that I ordered for the first time...and I got the pizza crusts to try. I can't wait to make them tonight for dinner!!! I cannot believe how good their stuff is!! I can't find them in stores yet...so I ordered a bunch of stuff. I've tried the oreos - oh my goodness - I felt guilty for eating them because they tasted like real ones (not that I should know...but yeah, I've tried 'em). And I tried the cinnamon buns - YUMMY!!! And I just barely tried a chocolate covered donut - also very good. (I think I've had my sugar for the day! haha!) I am so amazed at how good their products are - I want to tell everyone I meet!! So, I'm sure the pizza crusts will be just as wonderful! I'm excited now!

[Guest Viola]

I made pizza crust cinnamin toast today ... yummmmm

Those pizza sloppy joes sound good too .. will have to give that a try I'll be gaining weight again.

[Felidae]

Since I can't eat cheese, I have made my pizza crusts foccacia style. I put olive oil, oregano, salt, pepper, hot peppers, etc, on top, then bake. I then cut them up and dip them in olive oil and balsamic vinegar.

[Guest BERNESES]

I LOVE Chebe crusts- yummm! Vydor Scope- have you tried Namaste pizza crust? Very similar to Chebe taste wise (but it's not pre-made so you need to do a little mixing- easy enough) and I am pretty sure it is egg-free. It's goooood! Really good.
