Discover Creative Thanksgiving Pizza ideas for a crowdpleasing slice with fun toppings and quick steps that spark partyworthy flavor guests remember


Ingredients

1 medium pizza dough (12–14 inches), homemade or store-bought

2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for brushing

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup ricotta cheese

1 cup cooked turkey, shredded or chopped

1 cup stuffing, lightly toasted

1/4 cup cranberry sauce or cranberry relish

1/2 cup Brussels sprouts, thinly sliced and roasted or sautéed

2 tablespoons fresh sage, chopped

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste


Instructions

  • Prep and preheat: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while it heats for a crispier crust.

  • Roll and season the crust: On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a 12–14 inch round. Brush lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper.

  • Par-bake the crust: Transfer to a baking sheet or hot pizza stone. Bake for 5–6 minutes until just set but not browned — this keeps the crust sturdy for toppings.

  • Add toppings: Spread the garlic oil over the crust, then layer mozzarella, ricotta, turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, Brussels sprouts, and sage. Finish with Parmesan, salt, and pepper.

  • Bake until bubbly: Return to the oven and bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, the crust is golden, and the edges are crisp.

  • Finish and rest: Remove from the oven, let rest for 2–3 minutes, then slice. Drizzle lightly with olive oil before serving if desired.
