Pickle Pie Pizza

Slices of Pickle Pie Pizza with creamy cheese and tangy pickles, served with extra pickles on the side.

think a golden, chewy crust that’s crisped to perfection. Instead of the usual tomato sauce, though, we’re working with a creamy, tangy garlic sauce (sometimes ranch or sour cream). Then comes the mozzarella, melted into a gooey blanket, and the star of the show: sliced dill pickles.

Ingredients

  • Pizza dough: Store-bought or homemade, whatever works for you.
  • Garlic sauce: You can use pre-made white pizza sauce or make your own with sour cream, mayo, garlic powder, and dill.
  • Mozzarella cheese: Fresh or shredded, but don’t skimp—you want it melty and gooey.
  • Dill pickles: Thinly sliced for maximum flavor. Go for high-quality ones; the crunchier, the better.
  • Fresh dill: Optional, but it really boosts the flavor.
  • Red pepper flakes: For a little heat, if you’re into that sort of thing.

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set it to 475°F for a crispy crust. (Pro tip: Use a pizza stone if you’ve got one—it makes a huge difference!)
  2. Roll out the dough: Dust your surface with a little flour, then stretch or roll the dough into your desired shape.
  3. Spread the sauce: Slather on that creamy garlic sauce. Be generous—this is the foundation of your flavor.
  4. Add cheese: Sprinkle a thick, even layer of mozzarella. You want enough to melt into every bite.
  5. Top with pickles: Arrange the slices evenly across the pizza. Don’t be shy—it’s called pickle pizza for a reason!
  6. Bake: Pop it in the oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.
  7. Garnish: Sprinkle on some fresh dill and red pepper flakes for that final touch.
