Hey guys! I know it's been a while since I've posted but I'm back with another post...this time on something that I ( we) made! I actually I have a post from the summer that I haven't put up yet because I 've been kind of busy. I hope you're all having a lovely Thanksgiving so far :).
For the past 6 months, we've been holding Friday swim nights at my place. This has also turned into cooking night as well. So Annie posted this video from BuzzFeedFood on my wall the other day and we decided to try it on our Friday swim/cook nights.
So why did we call it the Croi-nut-za? It's croissants in the shape of a donut that's actually a pizza. Clever right ?:D
We started out with 2 Pillsbury croissant tubes and laid it out as shown in the video.
Then we laid on the sauce in a ring and put on our desired toppings. In this case, mushrooms, cheese and pepperoni.
Then we wrapped the whole thing up.
After baking for 30 min at 375F, it comes out looking like this!
We decided to make another one with a hole in the middle like the video shows.
It turns out the pastry fills up the hole so it doesn't really matter anyways.

Here's our masterpiece!
Would I make it again?
I'm going to say no :(. The recipe was easy to follow but due to how thick the pie was, the bottom didn't cook well so we were kind of sick from eating the uncooked dough :(. With a regular pie, you tend to cook the pie crust first before you put in the fillings and bake it, but you don't get the opportunity to do that in here. However, if you ignore that part, the rest of the croinutza was delicious and it was fun and easy to try the recipe.
Have a great week everyone!
