ย Directionsย ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡

Prep the Dough & Sauce:

  • Preheat your oven to 400ยฐF (200ยฐC). Make sure your oven rack is positioned in the center. โ™จ๏ธ

  • Lightly flour a clean surface and stretch or roll out your pizza dough into your desired shape (usually a circle) and place it on a baking sheet or pizza stone.

  • Using a spoon or ladle, spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust.

Add Cheese and Toppings:

  • Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the pizza sauce, making sure to cover the sauce.

  • Arrange the sliced dill pickles in a single layer over the mozzarella cheese. For even baking, distribute the pickles evenly on the pizza.

  • If you are adding bacon, sprinkle the cooked bacon pieces evenly over the pickles.

  • If desired, sprinkle minced garlic and red pepper flakes evenly over the pizza.

Bake to Perfection:

  • Carefully place the pizza in the preheated oven.

  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is completely melted and bubbly. Keep an eye on the pizza to prevent burning.

Garnish & Serve:

  • Once the pizza is done, carefully remove from oven using oven mitts.

  • Garnish with fresh dill. ๐ŸŒฟ

  • Let the pizza cool slightly before slicing it with a pizza cutter or large knife.

  • Serve warm and enjoy your unique creation.๐Ÿ•
