More About This Recipe

  • There’s no need to plan a trip to Chicago for deep-dish! This pizza can be made at home, and even better, can be made in your slow cooker. You can easily substitute in your favorite pizza toppings and customize your deep dish with your own preferences, like spinach and sun-dried tomatoes. Traditional deep-dish pizza is made with a deep layer of dough, which forms a bowl for the ingredients when cooked in a high-sided pan, and a signature sauce layer on the top. The slow cooker allows for a low-maintenance meal—you can pop in the pizza and spend more time with your family while it bakes. For more low-stress creations, browse all of our pizza recipes.
