Ingredients

Sheet Pan Pizza + Quick Homemade Dough (2)

Pizza Dough: I used a quick homemade pizza dough for this recipe, but you can also use store-bought dough. I have directions on how to thaw frozen pizza dough below.

Pizza Sauce: I've tried a few jarred pizza sauces, and my favorite has been Mezzetaa Pizza Sauce. It's the right balance of sweet, spicy, and robust tomato flavor.

Mozzarella Cheese: Use a low-moisture mozzarella so your pizza isn't soggy.

Parmesan Cheese: I love topping my pizza with parmesan cheese, but it's optional.

Favorite Pizza Toppings: I went with a classic pepperoni pizza for this recipe. Other toppings could be mushrooms, bell peppers, sausage, onion, place olives, or a sauce (like my chipotle ranch!)

Step 3: Spread dough onto the pan. The crust should be about ⅛ inch thick. Top with pizza sauce, cheese, and your favorite toppings.

Step 4: Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.

Step 5: Top with parmesan cheese and cut into pieces.

Homemade Sheet Pan Pizza Dough

The dough for this recipe is quick and easy. Mix all the ingredients in a bowl (no need for the yeast to bloom). Knead for a few minutes, and let the dough rise for 15 minutes.

This dough is fluffy with a crispy edge. It has great flavor and texture.

Frozen Pizza Dough Tips

If you are using frozen pizza dough. Place your pizza dough in the fridge 9 hours before you want to make your pizza.

Then, leave the dough out on the counter for 30 minutes before working with it. Room temperature dough is much easier to stretch.
