Learn how to make your own homemade frozen pizzas with this easy tutorial. This recipe is completely customizable to fit your own favorite pizza flavors.

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.

After a bit of trial and error, I found you can freeze pizza. You just need to keep these tricks in mind.

  1. Par-bake your crust before you freeze pizza
  2. Use a high temperate when cooking frozen pizza

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.

Cooking Frozen Pizza

  • Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Add pizza stone or cookie sheet in the oven before preheating starts.
  • Bake pizzas on the pizza stone for 8-10 minutes.
  • Enjoy!

See? Isn’t that easy? We had a night last week where I was exhausted, my husband was running late, and I just whipped out some of these homemade frozen pizzas for my kids. I made two for the three kids to share and they ate it all. It was so easy to feed my kids a homemade meal without actually having to do much cooking.
