I picked up 5” aluminum mini pie plates @ the dollar store (very inexpensive) you know the regular meat pie size.
How many of us have 8 of these 5 inch mini pizza pans? Why not offer alternative directions to make in regular deep dish pizza pan? If I made and liked big one, I would buy the mini pizza pans and use recipe as suggested. I love pizza and baking and all these ingredients, and I may experiment and make it in my big pan, but I am not eager to spend 2 1/2 hours or more on this recipe without your guidance.
Bake a single pizza at 425* for 20-30 minutes—you might need to tent the pizza if the top browns too quickly. Homemade deep dish pizza is always a labor of love—it will always take several hours to prepare/cook/rest. Be sure to post your results to share with others!
