Notes
Storage: Store leftover baked pizza in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days.
Reheating: Reheat slices in a 375°F oven or air fryer for 4 to 7 minutes to bring back the crust texture.
Freezing: Freeze baked slices for up to 2 months, wrapped tightly after they cool completely.
Expert Tips: Add extra flour only a little at a time because too much can make the crust firm.
Variations: Add cooked chicken, turkey pepperoni, bell peppers, mushrooms, spinach, or a sprinkle of Parmesan.
Kid-Friendly Notes: Divide the dough into smaller rounds so kids can choose their own toppings.
