There was a trend on another site where everyone made pizza so I thought I'd give it a whirl since I'd never made pizza at home that wasn't a take and bake.

The Publix dough worked well... I olive oiled the pans and then wiped out the extreme excess making sure to get the sides as well. I then built the pies and while the oven was warming I put the pans on the stove top to prewarm the bottom and the dough.

The dough was a smidge puffy but overall pretty good

..

The local 4 year old wouldn't eat it though as the pepperoni was under the cheese and not on top. Everyone is a critic.. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Yeah they are pretty good for dinner in a pinch .. Especially if you're itching for a pizza but don't want to wait for delivery.

Ingredients: flour tortilla, pizza sauce, toppings, cheese.

We typically only do cheese or pepperoni pizzas like this. As my wife is a child and doesn't eat anything beyond pepperoni. So I can't speak to how other toppings work with this method

So how I make ours is: Flour tortilla tossed on a griddle on the stove top. Heat set to medium. Set your oven to broil

While the griddle and tortilla are warming, build your pizza.

Once done toss griddle / pizza into oven to melt / warm / toast everything.

Yank it out when you're satisfied and plate.

I literally bought two lodge 10 inch griddles so I could make pizzas quicker for the family.

Takes about 7 minutes to fully make one.

That sounds like a crime I will commit. Thanks :)
