Ingredients

1 pizza crust dough
2 tablespoon semolina flour needed when using pizza peel
1 ½ cup shredded mozzarella
½ cup shredded provolone
1 cup sliced dill pickles
½ teaspoon dried dill

Ranch Sauce

2 tablespoon butter
2 cloves garlic minced
2 tablespoon all purpose flour
1 cup whole buttermilk
½ cup freshly grated parmesan
1 teaspoon dried dill
1 teaspoon dried chives
½ teaspoon dried parsley
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Dill Pickle Pizza

Preheat the oven, along with the pizza stone, to 425˚F. *See note one for an alternative method.
Roll the dough into a circle on a silicone mat and then transfer it to a cookie sheet (or pizza peel) that has been sprinkled with semolina flour.
Top the crust with ranch sauce, shredded mozzarella and half of the provolone.
Add the dill pickle slices and sprinkle with the remaining shredded provolone.
Slide the pizza onto the pizza stone in the oven and bake it at 425˚F for 15-20 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the crust is cooked.
Garnish with a sprinkle of dried dill.

Ranch Sauce

Melt the butter in a sauce pan over medium heat. Add garlic and saute until fragrant, about one minute.
Whisk in the flour until smooth.
Slowly whisk in the buttermilk until smooth.
Whisk in the parmesan, dried dill, dried chives, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper.
Bring the sauce to a boil. Then, lower the heat and cook until thickened, stirring constantly.
Allow the ranch sauce to cool slightly before topping the pizza. Store leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Notes

One: Baking Sheet

If you prefer to cook the pizza on a baking sheet, spread the dough on a greased baking sheet. Partially bake the crust at 425˚F for five minutes. Add the toppings and return the pizza to the oven for an additional 10-15 minutes.

Two: Leftovers

Store leftover pizza in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days or in the freezer for 1-2 months. If you want to freeze the leftovers, add the pickle slices at serving time. Reheat it in the oven, microwave, or air fryer.
