Crazy crust pizza gets its name from the crust, which is a little peculiar.
In this case, however, peculiar is spectacular!
Tips for Making Homemade Pizza: Crazy Crust Style
Use your pan size to choose between thin crust or regular-style crust.
For thin crust, opt for a 15-inch or larger cast iron skillet or pizza pan.
For thicker crust, opt for a smaller, 10-inch pan.
We love this recipe using a traditional, tomato-based sauce, but it’s fantastic with a pesto sauce as well!
