First Order's on us.

February 7, 2018

National Pizza Day -- Friday, February 9 -- will be a day long remembered. Whether you’re a big deal in the Resistance or a First Order sympathizer, pizza is the common ground that unites the galaxy.

A quick flavorful crust, topped with a tasty symbol, these individual pizzas are the perfect way to find out where your friend’s allegiances truly lie. Or maybe they’ll be like Finn and choose one of each...traitor! But really, who wouldn't like Star Wars pizza?

Resistance and First Order Pizzas for National Pizza Day

What You’ll Need:

Resistance/Rebellion starbird template
First Order template
Large pepperoni (approx. 2.5 inches in diameter)
Pizza sauce
Mozzarella cheese
cornmeal

Ingredients:

1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
½ teaspoon white sugar
1 cup warm water
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 Tablespoons olive oil
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon oregano
½ teaspoon salt

Paper templates are used to cut pepperoni into the shapes of Starbird and First Order symbols. The pepperoni cutouts are used in the making of Resistance and First Order Pizzas.

Step 1: Cut the large pepperoni into shapes using the starbird and First Order templates provided. Keep in the refrigerator until ready to use.

Step 2: In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast and sugar in the warm water. Let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes until bubbly.

Step 3: Into the yeast mixture stir in the flour, olive oil, garlic powder, oregano, and salt. Knead until smooth and the dough just comes together. Let rest for 5 minutes.

Step 4: Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Prep a baking sheet with silpats or parchment.

Step 5: Separate the dough into 6 pieces. Roll each piece out individually on a surface sprinkled with flour and cornmeal. Spoon on pizza sauce and top with mozzarella as desired.

Step 6: Place the starbird and First Order symbols onto each pizza. Bake for 8-10 minutes until the crust is golden brown. Serve immediately.

Now you can celebrate your side in the struggle for the galaxy and your love of pizza together. Enjoy.
