Let's Get Cooking!
Here's how to create your own batch of quick and tasty ensaymadas:
- Divide & Roll: Cut the pizza dough into 6 pieces and roll each into a thick cylinder. Curve them into spiral-shaped rolls.
- Rise & Shine: Let the rolled dough rest for an hour before brushing with melted butter, dusting with sugar, and topping with cheese.
- Bake: Pop the ensaymadas into the oven at 350°F and bake until they're beautifully risen and golden brown, approximately 30 minutes.
And there you have it! Ensaymadas made with store-bought dough that are chewy, a bit rugged, but irresistibly tasty. You'll find the tenderness you'd miss in classic ensaymadas, but we promise you'll make up for it in time saved!
