The easiest part about this recipe is not having to worry about making your own dough and have Mini Caprese Deep Dish Pizzas ready to eat in less time than it takes to order a pizza. The best part is the deep dish part, meaning generous amounts of filling in (not to be confused with ‘on’) pizza dough, almost like a pizza pie!

These could very well be passed off as a Margherita flavoured pizza, BUT, drizzled with a balsamic glaze (homemade or store bought), the Caprese flavours aren’t lacking at all.
Chicago Pizza
The best deep dish pizza in Chicago is famous for its thick, high golden crust and cheesy fillings/toppings. To keep the Chicago style deep dish pizza momentum going, these mini pizzas begin at the layering process with fresh Mozzarella slices on the base instead of pizza sauce, so the dough doesn’t become soggy while cooking and ensures a good amount of melted cheese in every single mouthful. So.much.cheese.

Bake until golden and bubbly.
