 Hand pulling a piece of pickle pizza out of pan

We recently saw this video floating around the internet and grew intrigued. Pickles on pizza? Really?! I love pickles and I love pizza, so we decided to test it out. We threw our own version of Pickle Pizza together in my kitchen and ended up LOVING IT.

Two days later I made another one because I couldn’t stop thinking about pickles and pizza and pizza and pickles all dancing around together. This pizza is insanely delicious and I promise you will not want to stop eating once you take your first succulent bite. If you are feeling unsure, I get it. I fully understand how this recipe could be controversial, but I’m begging you to try it.

WATCH THIS QUICK VIDEO TO SEE HOW TO MAKE PICKLE PIZZA YOURSELF!

HOW TO MAKE DILL PICKLE PIZZA

STEP 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and lightly coat a 12- or 13-inch round pizza pan with cooking spray. Roll the pizza dough out into a circle on a lightly floured work surface. Transfer to the prepared pan, folding the dough over at the edges. Spread the olive oil in an even layer over the dough and sprinkle the garlic evenly over the top. Top with an even layer of pickles, followed by dill, salt and pepper.

STEP 2

Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until crust is lightly golden brown. Cut into slices and serve!

RECIPE TIPS

  • Dill pickles work best for this recipe, but sweet pickle slices taste great, too!

  • If you don’t have a round pizza pan, use a baking sheet instead.

  • A sprinkling of Italian seasoning over the oil and garlic would taste great!

  • The best cheeses to use on homemade pizza are mozzarella, provolone and cheddar.

  • Baking time for pizzas will vary by a bit, so use your oven light and start peeking in around the 15-minute mark. The crust will be a golden brown color when the pizza is done and the cheese will be melted uniformly all over the surface.

WHERE IS THE PIZZA SAUCE?

There is no traditional pizza sauce in this recipe! The sauce is replaced with an olive oil and garlic dill sauce, which complement the pickles to perfection!

WHAT KIND OF PIZZA DOUGH SHOULD I USE?

The quickest and easiest thing to do is to buy frozen pizza dough (1 pound) and let it thaw in the fridge overnight in a covered bowl. When you are ready to make your pizza, roll the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and into the shape of your pizza pan.

Another easy option is to make your own No Yeast Pizza Dough which turns into the most perfect pizza crust you will ever set your lips on.

WHAT TO SERVE WITH PIZZA

Pizza is great solo but if you are looking for a little something to serve on the side, go with a simple salad such as this Grape Pecan Salad or this Chopped Salad. Breadsticks are also a great pizza side, served with a marinara sauce or butter garlic sauce. Garlic Bread is always a great option to serve alongside pizza.
