✅ You'll Need
- Crust: Our go-to is a homemade thin pizza crust. It's really easy to make and doesn't need much time to rise. If you're not up for making your own, store-bought pizza dough works just as well. For those who prefer a thicker crust, just remember to bake it a bit longer.
- Garlic – Grate or finely mince to avoid large raw chunks; raw garlic adds a strong bite, so don't overdo it.
- Sour Cream & Mayonnaise – Full-fat versions give the best texture and flavor.
- Buttermilk or Water – Use just enough to thin the sauce to a spreadable consistency—start with 1 teaspoon.
- Ranch Seasoning & Dried Dill – If using a salt-heavy ranch mix, reduce added salt.
- Lemon Juice – Use fresh lemon juice for better flavor than bottled; it keeps the sauce from tasting flat.
- Dill Pickles – Slice thin and pat dry with paper towels to avoid a soggy crust.
- Mozzarella Cheese – Use low-moisture shredded mozzarella for best melting and browning.
- Parmesan Cheese – Freshly grated gives a better melt.

🔪How To Make Dill Pickle Pizza
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
To make the sauce, combine all the ingredients in a medium bowl and mix them until you get a creamy and smooth texture.

For the pizza, stretch out the dough to make a 12-inch circle. You can put it on a pizza stone or on a baking sheet that's lined with parchment paper.
Spread the garlic sauce over the pizza dough, and then add the parmesan, mozzarella, and dill pickle slices on top.

Bake it in the preheated oven for 16-20 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the crust becomes golden brown. After taking it out of the oven, let it rest for 2-3 minutes before cutting and serving.
Garnish with fresh dill if you want.

👨🍳 Pro Tips
- Crust: For a crispy base, pre-bake the crust for a few minutes before adding toppings.
- Dry your pickles! Pat them with paper towels to prevent sogginess.
- Add cheese first, pickles second—this keeps everything crisp.
