Homemade Pizza in a Deep Dish Pizza Pan
Like many people, I’m a big fan of pizza. Honestly, it’s rare that I would turn down a slice of warm, cheesy pizza. When we were growing up we a place called Chicago Pizza Pub in the next town that made the most delicious deep-dish pizza. Actually, I hadn’t even heard of deep-dish pizza until we ate at the pizza pub – the pie was so tasty and unique, I became hooked. It’s been years since I had a good deep-dish pizza and I started having a craving for one. Then I came across this deep-dish pizza pan and I decided to buy it and trying making my own pies.
Well it turns out making pizza at home is easier than I thought. Making the dough might be the hardest part, but since I happen to own a bread maker, I can make the dough in that in a snap. Then all I have to do is add the sauce, cheese, some of my favorite toppings, put it in the oven and I’m done. The results are fantastic. And the pan quality is tremendous – it’s springform style so getting the pie out is easy, and because it has a cut resistant coating, I can just slice the pie right in the pan. I’m so happy that I found a way to make my own deep-dish pizza at home in this great pizza pan.
