Notes

For a gluten-free option, use gluten-free pizza dough. Try vegan cheese for a dairy-free version. Experiment with various toppings and sauces for added flavor. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge, reheating in a skillet for crispy results. Remember to clean the pizza stone with a dry brush once cool and avoid using soap on it.
