It’s easy to put together and I’m so in love with everything sheet pan lately. I’ve made entire meals using either my stone sheet pan this aluminumsheet pan, roasting everything at once. Then I got this wild idea to make a sheet pan pizza.
I used my alumium sheet pan because I took my oven up to 550 degrees. You don’t have to do that. You can make this pizza at 400 or 450 degrees, but it may take a little longer to bake. I lovethis stone baking sheetand itwill go up to 450 degrees. I bake or roast every day in the stone sheet pan.
I use store-bought dough which is about 16 ounces, and I stretch it thinly in the pan. It does not have to reach the sides. We love thin crust, and I try to get it as thin as possible without making holes.
Trader Joe's Pizza Dough
When you need to make a lot of pizza use a grocery store dough. One batch fits the sheet pan almost perfectly.After testing out a few, Trader Joe’s pizza dough is my favorite and this is not a paid post. It doesn’t have the same elasticity of Publix dough, but it’s much easier to work with and more consistent in baking.
My second secret is to use pizza sauce sparingly. An overload of sauce won’t allow the crust to brown properly and it’s not necessary. Think of the pizza sauce as more of a condiment for your toppings. I use a high quality brand of tomato puree, add a tad of olive oil, salt, pepper and sometimes some fresh oregano. That’s it. It’s clean, simple.
A cooking tip regarding pizza sauce is simply to save some of your tomato sauce from this basic tomato sauce recipe when you make spaghetti and freeze it for the future. A sheet plan pizza doesn’t need more than a cup of sauce.

Forget all that heavy layering that the pizza delivery companies do. They are trying to show value, not necessarily good taste.That’s no way to enjoy pizza. Scatter your toppings so that each bite of pizza gives you something different. It’s a more authentic way to make Italian pizza and it will bake better.
Here is a sheet pan pizza I made with sausage and red onion. So good. Cut down the center lengthwise and cut into triangles.

Because of this, my monthly recipe is all about a favorite Trader Joe’s product: Trader Joe’s pizza dough!

TJ’s pre-made, fresh pizza dough comes in very humble packaging, and if you’re not careful, you might miss it while you shop. Tucked away on a bottom shelf, this cult-favorite hasn’t let me down yet.So here are 3 fun ways to use the dough for your next at-home pizza party!
How To Make Homemade Pizza With Trader Joe's Pizza Dough
For these recipes, the goal was ease because this is a perfect weeknight meal — especially when you don’t feel like cooking. Pre-made pizza dough is a great store-bought shortcut (
BTW every topping featured in today’s post is from Trader Joe’s! You’re not going to find basic marinara and pepperoni here… cuz what’s the fun in that?? All told, I only spent $50 buying ingredients for all 3 of the pizza recipes (
Let’s go beyond the instructions on the back of the bag! To get you started, here are some basic pizza making tips:
We Tried Trader Joe's Piccolo Pizza
Admittedly, the instructions on the back of the packaging are limited and not the best for prepping pizza dough. Because of this, I’m sharing my tips so you can achieve the best possible results:
Rolling pins are lovely for pies but terrible for making pizza. This rule of thumb includes all pizza dough, store-bought or otherwise. Using a rolling pin to roll out pizza dough often over-excites the gluten and makes your pizza tight and tough.
Instead, here’s how to stretch your Trader Joe’s Pizza dough: working with the dough, allow it to form using gravity. First, flatten the dough ball and hold up, going around the edge in a circle, letting gravity do the pulling. Like how you see people tossing the pizzas in movies, but easier! This method helps the dough keep from seizing up. Next, press the dough into shape instead of rolling.

If you feel like you’re fighting to get the dough to hold its shape or stay in place, give it a 15 minute time out. A fight with gluten is one you will lose if you don’t allow the dough to relax when it’s overworked.
One of the best parts of making pizzas with ingredients from Trader Joe’s is the variety of toppings. Many of the options are vegan, just like the pizza dough itself, making it easy to accommodate dietary restrictions. While shopping, spread throughout the store. You will find pestos, dips, seasonings, produce, and tons of cheese options that are great on pizza. Feel free to try out what we recommend or do a little freestyling of your own!
The key to any good crust is oven temperature. For this reason, we will deviate from the package instructions. Before beginning, remove your pizza from the fridge for at least 30 minutes. Ideally, your Trader Joe’s pizza dough temperature should be room temperature before starting to work with it.

A hot oven equals a tasty pizza which is why the instructions in our recipe call for an oven temp of 475°. Also, this temperature works well for a pizza stone or a sheet pan. Use whichever you have!
As for cook time, the packaging says 10-15 minutes, but the truth is, it will vary. Watch for the pizza to arrive at the level of doneness you prefer. Typically, I set a timer for 10 minutes and then check it every few minutes for doneness. And don’t forget to brush your crust with a bit of olive oil, we don’t want a pale crust!
One of my favorite things about Trader Joe’s pizza dough is how accommodating it can be. Keep in mind that you have two days before the dough over-ferments and turns to mush in the fridge. That being said, it can be frozen for about two months before it gets frostbitten!
Trader Joe's Organic 3 Cheese Pizza Review
If you’re freezing the dough, it requires nothing more than putting it in the freezer. To defrost, pop it in the fridge a day or two before you plan on making it.Then make the pizza as usual.
Trader Joe’s also offers TONS of options to make meals more inclusive and diet-restriction friendly. Try out fresh whole-wheat, garlic, herb dough, and Gluten-Free options such as Trader Joe’s Stone Baked Pizza Crust or gluten-free pizza dough!
