I love stocking my freezer for easy grab-and-go lunches (and dinners) and making frozen pizza has been on my list for a long time. I finally took the time to experiment with method and recipe and shared a little bit in my last freezer session post.
Another freezer-friendly pizza-ish recipe I like to make is homemade air fryer calzones. Freezing instructions (and oven-baking instructions) are included in the post!

How to make homemade frozen pizza
The trick with making delicious homemade frozen pizza is to par-bake the crust.
- Start by making a big batch of pizza dough (I doubled this recipe).
- Divide into 8 pieces and roll each into an 8-inch round.
- Next, you will par-bake the dough on a pizza stone or preheated cookie sheet.
- Bake your dough (working in batches) for 5 minutes and let cool on a cooling rack for 10 minutes.
- Top with pizza sauce, grated cheese, and your favorite toppings.
- Flash freeze for 2-3 hours. Wrap in plastic wrap and slide into a freezer bag.

- Enjoy!
