Recipe Expert Tips

  • Makes 6 personal pan pizzas
  • To use frozen pizza dough, transfer it from the freezer to the refrigerator and let it thaw overnight. A few hours before baking, take the dough out of the fridge, place it in an oiled bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm spot until doubled in size. Once risen, punch down the dough, shape it into a ball, and flatten it into a disk.
  • For a personal pizza, place the dough in an oiled 8-inch or 9-inch cake pan. Use the heel of your hand to press it out to the edges. If it shrinks back, let it rest for five minutes, then stretch it again. Add sauce and toppings, then bake in a preheated 400°F oven for 9-12 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the crust is golden brown.

    Best pizza dough I ever made. light, crispy, thin crust with edges stuffed with cheese. Everyone ate all of EVEN THE CRUST!!
    made 2 pan size in glass pie plates. topped a third one with toppings and popped in freezer. Will see how that does from frozen. Then there were 3 more balls of dough to freeze (following your instructions).

    Absolutely loved it!
    Thank you

      Gladys sorry but I have never used gluten free dough to make this pizza dough recipe. I do not think it would work.

    I have a 14" deep dish pizza pan (chicago metallic) that we love. Makes a man sized pizza.:-)
    How much of the dough would you recommend for a deep dish pizza in this pan(including up the sides)?

      Hi Ken I would suggest playing around with the dough and the pan to get the correct amount of dough for this bigger size pan. I make my deep dish pizza in a 9 inch pie or cake pan. You will probably need about 1 1/2 or 3/4 quarters of the amount of doughballs you see in my photos.

    Big hit with the kids and adults. Dough was very easy to work with. Nothing left over so have to make another batch for the freezer.

    Where can I find your recipe for single serve deep dish pizza and once frozen will the freeze kill the yeast? Thanks.

      Hi Ginger

      Freezing the pizza dough will not kill the yeast. Follow the directions for thawing and rising the frozen dough. Here is the link to the single serve pizza recipe.

      Yes, you can use honey instead of sugar. I would stir it into the warm water until it dissolves. Yes, rapid yeast very similar to Instant yeast. You can use it instead if you can't find the rapid yeast.

      I have never tried making it in a food processor. I like to knead my pizza dough and bread dough by hand.

      I have never made regular size pizzas for my family. We all have such different tastes when it comes to pizza toppings that I have always made personal pan pizzas when I made homemade pizza.

      Depending on how thick you like your pizza dough I would think that this batch of dough would probably make 3 regular crust 12 to 16 inch pizzas.

      I'm so glad you came by and told me you love the recipe. It is one of my favorite freezer meal recipes!

      You can freeze the dough for about 30 days.

        Do you have to use bread flour or is all purpose flour acceptable to substitute?

      • Arlene Mobley

        March 24, 2024 at 5:18 pm

        Jennifer you can use the same amount of all-purpose flour. Bread flour does make a better pizza dough but it will still work with all-purpose.
