Description

Tangy, cheesy, and irresistibly unique—Pickle Pizza combines classic pizza flavor with a zesty dill pickle twist. Crunchy, bold, savory.


Ingredients

Scale
  • Ready-made pizza dough

  • 34 tbsp crème fraîche

  • 2 garlic cloves, finely grated

  • 1 tbsp grated Parmesan

  • 1 tbsp pickle (gherkin) brine

  • Handful fresh dill, chopped

  • 100g grated mozzarella

  • ½ red onion, thinly sliced

  • Sliced gherkins (for topping)


Instructions

  • Preheat oven according to dough instructions (typically 200°C / 400°F).

  • In a bowl, combine crème fraîche, garlic, Parmesan, dill, and pickle brine.

  • Roll out pizza dough and spread the prepared sauce evenly over the base.

  • Layer with mozzarella, red onion, and sliced gherkins.

  • Bake for 12–15 minutes until crust is golden and cheese is bubbling.

Notes

For a spicier kick, add chili flakes or pickled jalapeños before baking. Great served with a side of ranch or garlic dip.
