Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pizza dough
- 1 cup low-moisture part-skim mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup crème fraîche or ranch dressing
- 1 cup pickles, sliced
- Olive oil, for brushing
- Semolina or cornmeal, for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
- Pat pickle slices dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
- Lightly brush the pizza dough with olive oil.
- Spread a thin layer of crème fraîche or ranch dressing on the dough.
- Sprinkle shredded mozzarella evenly over the sauce.
- Place the dried pickle slices on top of the cheese.
- Pre-bake the crust for 3–5 minutes for a firmer base.
- Bake the pizza on a preheated surface for 10-12 minutes until crispy and golden.
Notes
For extra crispiness, dust the base with semolina or cornmeal and consider using an ‘upside-down’ method by adding cheese first and sauce second.
