For extra flavor, try adding a sprinkle of garlic powder or red pepper flakes to the cheese as it melts.
A cast iron skillet works beautifully for this recipe, creating an even crispier crust.
Feel free to customize the toppings with your favorite pizza ingredients, such as cooked sausage, pepperoni, or vegetables.
If you don't have bocconcini, you can substitute with shredded mozzarella, but the fresh mozzarella adds a lovely creamy texture.

  • Gladys Lebsack

    The cheese crust stuck to my skillet a little, even though it was non-stick. I will be sure to add some olive oil next time before melting the cheese!

  • Eleonore Altenwerth

    I added some olives and mushrooms, and it was amazing!
