Homemade Oven Pan Pizza

(Using Marinara Sauce)

Oven Temperature

Preheat oven to 450°F

Rack in lower-middle position

Ingredients

Pizza dough (homemade or store-bought)

⅓–½ cup marinara sauce

1½–2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Toppings of choice (pepperoni, sausage, veggies, etc.)

Olive oil

Optional Sauce Boost

1 tbsp tomato paste (thickens sauce)

½ tsp garlic powder

½ tsp Italian seasoning or oregano

Pinch red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Pan

Use a metal pan or cast iron skillet

Coat generously with 2 tbsp olive oil


2. Shape the Dough

Press dough into the pan, pushing from center outward

Let rest 10 minutes, then press again if it shrinks

Optional: Brush edges with olive oil + garlic powder
3. Sauce & Cheese (Prevents Soggy Pizza)

Mix marinara with optional sauce boost if using

Sprinkle ½ cup mozzarella directly on the dough

Spread ⅓–½ cup marinara thinly over cheese

Add remaining cheese and toppings


Tip: Pre-cook sausage, bacon, or mushrooms to reduce moisture.

4. Bake

Bake 15–20 minutes

Rotate pan halfway if needed

Optional: Broil 1–2 minutes at the end for browning

5. Check for Doneness

Crust edges golden and pulling from pan

Bottom browned and crisp

Cheese melted and bubbly

Optional Finishes

Grated parmesan

Red pepper flakes

Drizzle of olive oil

Fresh basil (after baking)

Yield: 1 thick, crispy pan pizza
Notes: Use less sauce than you think — marinara is thinner than pizza sauce.
