Ingredients
For 4 Person(s)
For the Banti:
- 1 pound pizza dough (I use frozen, defrost it and let it rise)

- 1/2 pound pound of sausage (take off casing)
- 1/4 cup cup of corn oil
- 2 medium onions
- salt & pepper (to season)

Directions
- If pizza dough is frozen let it defrost and rise.
- If you are making the spinach/onion defrost frozen chopped spinach and squeeze out water and put aside
- In the mean time fry the onions in the oil..until they get some color
- Next step...I use my counter or you could use a very large wooded cutting board.
- When dough has raised put some flour on the counter and start to roll out the dough like you were making pizza but thinner.
- Next step.... sprinkle some oil on the dough and spread it to cover the dough (very little).
- Then you place the spinach on the dough all over in different spots.
- Then you do the same and place the onions on the spinach or around it.
- Then you sprinkle some salt & pepper and drizzle a little bit of oil on top.
- Now you can roll up the dough to the end.
- Close the sides but pinching them.
- Pre-het the oven at 400F.
- You could either bake it like that or you can cut it in half.
- If you do cut it... pinch the other ends that weren't pinched.
- I use the throw away aluminum pans.... sprinkle a little bit of oil on the pan and place the banti in the pan and then the oven.
- Put them in the oven and reduce the temp. to 375F. Bake them for about 15-20 minutes until one side gets colored... then turn them over until the other side gets colored too. Now you can take them out and serve them.
- If you want to make them ahead of time you can make them and freeze them.

Recipe Notes
I fill the dough with spinach & onions or sausage & onions. I do not cook my sausage before putting it on the dough... just remember to take it out of the casing. You can fill them with whatever you want. Enjoy!!
