Hamburger bun, sandwich bread or pizza crust!

DIRECTIONS

Combine in a small bowl and spread on a parchment sheet lined pan into 2 small circles for sandwich bread or burger buns; 1 larger circle for pizza crust.

For pizza:
After baking for ten minutes, add toppings and bake until cheese is bubbly and lightly browned.
