Notes

Please note that the nutritional value is largely affected by what toppings go onto the pizza, so please use a nutritional app to calculate if that is important to you. 

Best toppings for homemade pizza

In this case, the flour crust is thin; therefore, it's best to keep toppings simple and light. Too much cheese or heavy toppings will weigh it down, and it will all fall off when eating.

Can pizza be made in a skillet? 

  1. Cast-iron thin crust pizza is one of the best ways to cook tortilla pizza!
  2. Warm a cast iron pan and then drizzle a bit of olive oil into the pan. Add a large flour tortilla and then fry both sides.
  3. Tortillas tend to fill with bubbles, and it's fine to pop and turn. Once both sides are cooked and crispy to your liking, add tomato sauce, cheese, and toppings.
  4. Carefully remove once the cheese is melted and serve.
