Description
A delicious twist on classic pizza that combines the flavors of a cheeseburger with a crispy crust.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 pre-made pizza dough
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons mustard
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Start by preheating your oven to 425°F. I always find this step sets the tone—it signals the beginning of something warm and satisfying.
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. As it cooks, sprinkle in salt and pepper, and add the diced onions. The aroma at this stage is unmistakable—it’s exactly what you’d expect from a classic cheeseburger sizzling on the grill.
- Once the beef is fully cooked, drain any excess fat and set it aside. Roll out your pizza dough onto a baking sheet or pizza stone. If you like a crispier crust, brush a little olive oil over the surface before adding toppings.
- Now comes the fun part. Spread a thin layer of ketchup and mustard across the dough. This acts as your “sauce” and gives the cheeseburger pizza its signature flavor. Sprinkle a generous layer of mozzarella and cheddar cheese, then evenly distribute the cooked beef mixture on top.
- Add diced tomatoes for a fresh, juicy contrast. Slide the pizza into the oven and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling beautifully.
- Once out of the oven, drizzle a bit of mayonnaise over the top if you like that classic burger finish. Slice, serve, and enjoy every bite of your homemade cheeseburger pizza.
Notes
- This pizza is a great option for parties or family dinners, providing a unique flavor that everyone will love.
- Feel free to add additional toppings like pickles or bacon for an extra cheeseburger kick!
