For Intermediate Pizza Makers: Cold Fermented Pizza Dough

This pizza dough recipe is my go-to for my outdoor pizza oven (Ooni or Gozney), but also works for home ovens. With this recipe, the slow, colder fermentation from letting the dough sit in the fridge for at least 24 hours allows for a better flavor to develop over time. That additional time also enables more bubbly goodness when baked. This recipe is flexible — it works with different flours, different times in the fridge. Use it to your advantage to play around and experiment and see what you like best. The end result is a cross between a Neopolitan and a NY style pizza — slightly crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside.

For Store-Bought Dough: Transform Store-Bought Dough Into a Magical Cheesy Bread!

Don’t want to make your own dough? This twist on cheesy bread is both creamy from a garlicky, pumpkin cream sauce and cheesy. As a bonus, it uses store-bought dough saving you the trouble of making your own dough.

For No-Knead Dough: Crispy Pan Pizza

The first style of pizza that I learned was actually a cast-iron pan pizza. It’s typically made with a no-knead dough and only requires — you guessed it — a cast iron pan. Years later, I’ve developed my own recipe to achieve this crunchy, crispy, goodness.
