Done

Take a Large Spoonful of the Dough and Shape It Like a Doughnut. Another Option Is to Make a Dough Ball With a Hole in the Center, and Place a Piece of Filling in the Center and Close the Dough Over Completely to Seal. Filling Can Be Piece of Anchovy, Feta or Mozzarella Cheese, Pepperoni, or Whatever Else You Want. Shaping the Dough Works Best With Oiled Hands, but Keep in Mind If You Are Sealing the Ball With Filling, You May Need to Dust the Opening With Flour to Get a Good Seal Because Otherwise the Oil Will Keep It from Sealing Shut. |
