Notes

🔥 Amber’s Tips for an Amazing Deep Dish Pizza

  • Don’t rush the bake. A deep-dish skillet pizza needs that full oven time—let the top get golden and the layers heat all the way through for the best cheesy melt and crispy edges.
  • Crisp your bacon first. Even pre-cooked bacon benefits from a few minutes in the oven or microwave before layering—it’ll stay crisp, not soggy.
  • Go easy on the sauce between layers. A little goes a long way. Too much sauce = soggy middle.
  • If the cheese isn’t browned, hit broil. After baking, switch your oven to broil for 1–2 minutes to get that bubbly, golden top. Just keep a close eye so it doesn’t burn.
  • Let it rest before slicing. Give it 5–10 minutes after baking so the cheese settles. It slices cleaner and holds together better.
  • Use the right size skillet. A 10–12" cast iron pan works best. Too small and it overflows, too big and it gets dry.
