Homemade Frozen Pizza

I love the convenience of buying frozen pizza. It is fantastic for those nights when you have just enough energy to turn on an oven.

The trick to a homemade frozen pizza is to make extra pizzas when you are making homemade pizza. Since I made a BBQ Chicken Pizza on yesterday's post, I decided to make one extra pizza to freeze to eat for later.

My homemade frozen pizza was a huge success! The result was a crisp and chewy pizza crust that tasted like it was freshly made (after one week in the freezer).

Ingredients
1 fresh unbaked homemade pizza (try my recipe for 35 Minute BBQ Chicken Pizza or 30 Minute Hawaiian Pizza)

Directions
1. Place unbaked homemade pizza on a pizza pan lined with parchment paper.

2. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap and freeze. You can either leave the pizza in the pan (to use within a week's time). For longer storage: remove from the fridge after 4 hours and wrap it tightly with plastic wrap and then aluminium foil. Label with the date, baking instructions and freeze for up to 3 months.

TIPS

• Prepare extra ingredients and extra pizza dough.
• Avoid items that do not freeze well: produce/vegetables with a lot of water content (spinach, arugula). Add those items right before you bake.
• Wrap the pizza tightly with plastic wrap and aluminium foil to prevent freezer burn.
