How to Make Zucchini Pizza:
Pizza Crust:
I use my super easy homemade pizza dough recipe to make the dish from scratch. It yields two pies that have irresistible crispiness, and only takes about an hour to prepare! Or if you are in a pinch for time, store-bought crusts can be used. Look for 1 pound of fresh dough or the 10 to 12-inch wide pre-baked rounds.
More Ways to Cook a Pizza:
Baking the pizza on a large sheet pan yields a larger pie and gives you more flexibility on the size, shape, and thickness. However, for an extra crispy crust, you can bake the pizza in a large cast-iron skillet. You can also grill the pizza dough, flip over, then add the toppings and heat until the toppings are hot and bubbly.
Other Topping Suggestions:
To switch up this recipe, other ingredients can be used to pair with the zucchini. Slice up some yellow squash, red onions, or bell peppers for extra color and crunch. Add some mushrooms for a more savory taste. Sprinkle on some creamy feta, goat, or ricotta cheese. Add some pungency with marinated artichoke hearts or briny olives.
