Instructions
- Preheat the Blackstone griddle to low heat and bring the surface temperature to about 450 to 500 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Prepare the pizza dough and shape it into a 12 inch round crust that fits under the melting dome.
- Drizzle olive oil on both sides of the dough and sprinkle Italian seasoning on the top side. If using raw dough poke small holes in the surface.
- Sauté vegetables on the griddle with olive oil for about 3 to 5 minutes until tender then remove and keep warm.
- Place the pizza dough seasoning side down on the hot griddle and cook for about 2 minutes until lightly browned.
- Flip the dough and cook the second side until golden brown.
- Spread a thin layer of warmed pizza sauce over the cooked side of the crust.
- Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly across the sauce.
- Add your preferred toppings such as pepperoni vegetables or sausage.
- Cover the pizza with a melting dome or griddle lid until the cheese melts completely.
- Remove the pizza from the griddle slice and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use gluten free pizza dough or a pre baked crust for a gluten free version.
- For a quick dinner use pita bread or naan as the crust and cook the same way on the griddle.
- Let kids build their own pizza by preparing small bowls of toppings.
