Pickle Pizza

Iris Hanson

Report

Pickle Pizza features a thin-crust pizza topped with a creamy garlic sauce, thinly sliced dill pickles, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese. The combination results in a tangy, rich, and slightly sharp flavor profile with a crispy golden crust, combining familiar pizza textures with an unconventional topping.

Description

This Pickle Pizza uses a pizza dough base rolled to about 12 inches, layered first with a smooth garlic sauce made from sour cream, mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, and seasoning. Thin slices of dill pickles are distributed evenly over the sauce, topped with shredded mozzarella and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese. Baking in a 400°F oven melts the cheese and crisps the crust to a golden brown.

The garlic sauce provides a creamy, savory foundation that contrasts with the acidity and saltiness of the pickles. Mozzarella adds melty texture, while Parmesan contributes nuttiness. The result is a pizza with a crisp yet tender crust, balanced by the creamy sauce and bright pickle bite.

Letting the pizza rest briefly before slicing allows the toppings to set. This pizza offers an interesting twist for those who enjoy dill pickles and creamy garlic flavors.

Instructions

Keep Screen Awake

Preheat oven to 400°F.

Garlic Sauce

In a medium bowl, combine all the ingredients until creamy and smooth.

Pizza

Roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. You can use a pizza stone or baking sheet. I like to line mine with parchment.
Top with the garlic sauce, sliced pickles, mozzarella, and parmesan cheese.
Bake for 16-20 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the crust is golden brown. Let the pizza sit for about 3 minutes before cutting and serving.
