Someone Came Up With A Brilliant Way To Make Crock Pot Pizza That You Have To Try Yourself
For many people, pizza is a staple of their eating habits. Thanks to this genius idea from Sara of the blog Average Betty you can easily make it. Her secret? Use a Crock-Pot, or a slow cooker, to bake the pizza. It might sound strange, but once you see how she does it, you’ll want to try it for yourself.
Sara made her pizza with store-bought dough and sauce from a can. Keep reading to see the step-by-step instructions of how to create this delicious masterpiece.
Before you start cooking, it’s important to place some parchment paper inside the Crock-Pot, as seen below. The paper will act as a sort of sling that will make it much easier to pull out the pizza when it’s done.
Once the dough is ready, press it to the bottom of the pot. Make sure to leave room around the edges so you can form the crust.
Then, you can spread your sauce. Sara uses store-bought red sauce, but you can make your own, or use whatever sauce you’d like.
Next, it’s time to lay down the cheese and whatever toppings you’d like. Sara opted for a traditional cheese and pepperoni pizza, but you can do just about anything you can think of.
Now it’s time to let this baby cook. Sara recommends leaving it in the Crock-Pot for an hour on a high setting, then opening the lid to wipe off any condensation that may have formed. Once the lid is cleaned, let it cook for another half hour.
Just look at how beautiful this pie is.
