Tips
Make sure dough rectangles overlap enough to create a secure seal around the filling to prevent leaking during baking.
Don't overfill the center as excess toppings can make the dough soggy and harder to seal properly.
Let the ring cool for the full 5 minutes before cutting to allow the cheese to set slightly for cleaner slices.

Common Mistakes

Substitutions
FAQ
Can I use different pizza toppings?
Yes, substitute any pizza toppings you prefer like sausage, mushrooms, or different vegetables. Just keep the total amount of toppings similar to prevent overfilling.
What if my dough tears while assembling?
Press torn edges together and continue. The dough is forgiving and small tears will seal during baking as long as you secure the ends properly.
How long will leftovers keep?
Leftovers stay fresh in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat individual slices in the microwave or warm the whole ring in the oven.
