Everyone needs a super easy and universally-loved dinner idea up their sleeve. This Easy Thin Crust Pizza Tutorial will show you how to make shatteringly crisp, outrageously delicious pizza in 20 minutes!
I'm happy to present to you this 20-Minute, Easy Thin Crust Pizza Tutorial, as I know it will make your life more fun, delicious and easy! I've been making this pizza for months now and it's been a life-saver on those busy days when I forget about dinner until 5 or 6 o'clock. It's been wonderful to be able to make a delicious (and decently healthy) pizza with whatever I can scrounge up in the fridge and pantry. It's not a complicated recipe, but I've been testing different oven temps and prep techniques to achieve a super crisp pizza crust, with minimal time and effort involved. I can't wait for you to try it!
It seems to me, that (almost) everyone loves pizza. It's one of those entrees that's popular with kids and grownups alike and it can be served for breakfast lunch or dinner, depending on the toppings. Here at The Café, we never tire of pizza as there's an infinite number of varieties!

The problem with pizza, as I see it, is twofold. First of all, a good pizza takes a fair amount of time to put together. Even a super easy crust recipe takes forethought, planning and at least an hour to mix up, roll out, allow to rise and finally, bake. It makes a delicious dinner with a crisp green salad but it's definitely not one you can whip up on a moment's notice.
The second problem with pizza, both homemade and purchased, is that it's generally pretty high in calories and carbs, making it a delicious splurge but perhaps not the most healthy choice for frequent indulging.
But what if you could have pizza, with just about any kind of toppings and have it be decently low in calories and carbs (in comparison to classic homemade or purchased pizza)?
The Best Thin Crust Pizza
The crust accounts for most of the carbs and a good portion of the calories in pizza. According to Eatingwell.com, a medium (12-inch)
But, what if you could have a pizza that was decently low in carbs and calories with a super crisp crust and your favorite toppings for just 8 carbs and around 139 calories per slice? A pizza that would take 20 minutes, start to finish!
Okay, so what's the secret? It's something you can find at pretty much any grocery store. Big flour tortillas. Flour tortillas?? Flour tortilla pizzas are nothing new. People have been probably making them for as long as flour tortillas have been around. But honestly, most flour tortilla pizzas taste like a flour tortilla with pizza toppings. That's not what we're going for here.

We're going for a shatteringly crisp, super delicious crust that will make the perfect blank canvas for an endless variety of toppings. I discovered that it's all in the prep. Yes, if prepped correctly these Mexican-inspired flatbreads can produce fabulous thin-crust pizza!
How does it work? Prepping a tortilla for pizza will take less than 2 minutes. Start by preheating your oven to 375˚F. Place a large flour tortilla (I like to use the 12-inch size) on a sheet pan and brush it on both sides with olive oil (this is where the magic's at, the oil in combination with the oven heat, takes a regular old flour tortilla and transforms it to a thin, super tasty, shatteringly crisp pizza crust.
The next step is a 2½ minute stint in the oven. When you take a peek after 2½ minutes, the flat tortilla will be just begining to turn golden and will have puffed up in areas. At this point, simply remove the pan from the oven, flip the tortilla over and flatten any puffy areas with a metal spatula. Back into the oven it goes for 2½- 3 minutes more. Flip it one more time and again, flatten out any puffiness.

Finish off the pizza with cheese, sauce and your favorite pizza toppings and you're just about done! Bake until the cheese is bubbly and the crust golden and shatteringly crisp. Now, wipe the drool off your mouth as you call the gang for dinner. Don't be surpised if the pizza disappears faster than you can say
For the classic pepperoni pizza featured in the images above I followed the directions given in the recipe below for preparing and baking the crust. Then I topped it with 6 ounces of shredded Mozzarella, ¼ cup of Super Easy Pizza Sauce and 1¼ ounces of Boarshead Thin-sliced Pepperoni. After baking I like to sprinkle the whole thing with a shower of Italian seasoning and lots of fresh basil leaves. DELISH!

I call it my “faux brick oven pizza recipe”, as it yields a super thin crust that’s crisp and chewy and delicious – and it’s made in the kitchen oven!
With all the great brick oven pizza restaurants cranking out amazing pies, I’ve longed for a homemade thin crust pizza that would give me that same experience…but from my own very regular kitchen oven.

But then we ate some amazing brick oven pizzas in our friends’ backyard last fall. Shortly thereafter, I came upon a piece of mind-blowing homemade pizza-making equipment made for the kitchen oven. I experimented. And then experimented some more.
I do hope you’ll find as much enjoyment in this homemade pizza as our family does. It’s quickly become a Family Pizza Night tradition!

I remember making homemade pizzas as a kid. We’d pull out a box of Chef Boyardee Pizza Maker from the lazy susan and then happily proceed to create a pizza masterpiece.
Inside the box was the crust mix, a little can of pizza sauce, and a small packet of grated Parmesan. All we needed was some shredded mozzarella and toppings. Talk about an easy way to make your own pizza!
While I have awesome memories of this kind of homemade pizza making with my parents and sisters, I set my sights a bit higher with this recipe I’m sharing with you now. Although it does take more time than boxed Chef Boyardee, I promise that this is an easy way to achieve an epic thin crust pizza dough at home.
Thin Crust Pepperoni And Vegetable Pizza
My “faux brick oven pizza” recipe makes me giddy. And that’s not an exaggeration. Just ask our kids. Every time I pull a hot pizza from the oven, Hatti and Tessa are laughing at me (or laughing “with me”?!). I simply canNOT contain my excitement!
Two pieces of essential equipment make this fantastic recipe’s results possible. They are key in making pizza crust magic in a regular ol’ oven!
First, you’ll want to grab a pizza peel. This tool features a large flat surface with a handle – see the peel in the photo above, on the left.
No Yeast Thin Crust Pizza Recipe
A pizza peel is the perfect tool for transferring the pizza to and from the hot oven. I prefer a wood peel in the kitchen – but I also know that many restaurants and home cooks use metal peels, especially when cooking in a brick oven.
If you want to make larger pizzas, you’ll want to look for a larger pizza peel, so the pizza fits on it. My recipe specifies rolling the dough for each pizza into a 14″ diameter circle.
I was completely unaware that baking steels even existed until I ventured down this homemade pizza crust journey. After seeing one mentioned in a recipe, I took a chance and ordered one.

And, hey. I get it. If you feel resistant to buying yet one more piece of kitchen equipment, be assured that I felt the very same way!
But I was also desperate to conquer a thin and crispy/chewy crust in our kitchen oven. So I added this baking steel to my online cart, said a little prayer, and clicked “place order”.
I’m so happy it all worked out.
