Begin by preheating your oven and preparing a baking sheet or pizza stone. Gently unroll or shape the dough to your desired thickness and size. You can stretch it by hand or use a rolling pin. Once shaped, transfer it to your baking surface. Add your favorite sauce, cheese, and toppings. Bake according to package directions or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly. The thinness allows for faster cooking times compared to thicker crusts.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike thicker pizza doughs, this thin crust is designed to bake up crispier and lighter. It has a lower profile, allowing the toppings to be the star of the pizza. The texture is meant to be less bready and more of a delicate base.
