Make Pizza Without A Pizza Pan

Make your own pizza at home.


Recreate pizzeria pies at home even if you do not own a pizza pan or baking stone. All you need to prepare a pizza is a skillet with an oven-proof handle. Using a skillet to pre-cook the pizza dough before melting the cheese in the oven ensures that the pizza dough is cooked all the way through at the same time as the toppings are done. Using pre-mixed or frozen pizza dough will save time when making your pizza.


Instructions


1. Heat the olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.


2. Using your hands, flatten the pizza dough into a circle the same diameter as the skillet.


3. Transfer the pizza dough to the skillet and cook it for five minutes or until the bottom browns.


4. Flip the pizza dough to cook the opposite side until browned.


5. Top the pizza with your choice of pizza toppings.


6. Place the entire skillet with the topped pizza into the oven for five to 10 minutes to melt the cheese and brown the toppings.
