It tasted great! I recommend making sure that the dough is thin and baked thoroughly to get a more crunchy texture. Will definitely make it again

Definitely bake the rolled-out dough for 8-10mins before adding toppings- needs that crunch. Tasted great!

No need to preheat the oven until AFTER you pull the dough out of the fridge 😉

I didn’t have any baking powder or Italian seasoning but it came out well. I recommend adding cheddar cheese as well dipping it in ranch but I will definitely get the Italian seasoning or a similar seasoning to that next time for additional flavor. I also added spinach.
