Pizza Hut Pan Pizza - Copycat Recipe

Homemade pizza is so easy and so inexpensive, it's a wonder why more people don't make it themselves. We like a thin crust pizza, but when I saw this at Brenda's blog, I wanted to give it a try. 
It was a delicious pizza, but I really can't tell you if this tasted like a Pizza Hut pizza, or not, considering I can't even remember the last time I was in a Pizza Hut, much less how the pizza tasted! But, the dough was a joy to work with... nice and soft and smooth, and easy to roll out. The sides and bottom of the crust were super crispy.
I didn't make the sauce called for in the recipe... I used jarred spaghetti sauce along with shredded mozzarella, mushrooms, red onions, tomatoes, and some fresh herbs. This recipe makes three 9-inch pizzas; perfect when you have people who want different toppings. Next time I make pizza, I'm going to use this dough, but roll it out into one large pizza.
The recipe calls for 9 ounces of oil (3 ounces per pan), which I thought was way too much, so I used a LOT less. You can find the recipe here!

  2. I'm starved now after seeing this! It looks and sounds like a great pizza and I'm going to try it. There was a PH near where I worked and I loved their pizza but haven't had it for years, since I retired. Thanks for the recipe!

  3. That seriously looks good. I'm a sucker for pizza (meat and cheese together, Amen!)Typically I'm a thin crust girl cuz it's all about the toppings (see previous comment)for me. Your talk of the crust is tempting me to give it a try!

  5. Isn't pizza just the best? I have rarely tried making pizza at home. The few times I have, the dough turns out horrible. I'm just no good with anything yeast.

  8. Pizza is in my top five favorite foods of all time. Normally I'm partial to a very thin crust but homemade dough brings this to an entirely different level. Looks delicious!
