# What You'll Need:

01 - 2 large fresh dill pickles, sliced
02 - 397 grams mozzarella cheese, shredded
03 - 57 grams Parmesan cheese, grated
04 - 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped

→ Base Sauce

05 - 120 millilitres full-fat sour cream
06 - 60 grams cream cheese
07 - 60 millilitres mayonnaise
08 - 2 garlic cloves, minced
09 - 2 teaspoons dry ranch seasoning
10 - 0.5 teaspoon dried dill weed

→ Pizza Dough

11 - 300-400 grams all-purpose flour
12 - 1 tablespoon instant yeast
13 - 1 teaspoon salt
14 - 240 millilitres warm water

→ Optional Garlic Ranch Sauce Enhancers

15 - 1.5 tablespoons pickle juice
16 - Fresh chives or parsley, finely chopped (optional)

# Directions:

01 - Set oven temperature to 245°C and allow it to fully preheat.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, combine sour cream, cream cheese, mayonnaise, minced garlic, dry ranch seasoning, and dried dill weed. Mix thoroughly until smooth. If desired, stir in pickle juice and fresh herbs.
03 - In a separate bowl, combine all-purpose flour, instant yeast, and salt. Gradually add warm water, mixing to form a dough. Knead on a floured surface for 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
04 - Roll out the dough to desired thickness and transfer to a pizza stone or lined baking sheet.
05 - Spread a thin, even layer of the prepared garlic ranch sauce over the dough. Distribute shredded mozzarella evenly, followed by a layer of sliced dill pickles. Top with grated Parmesan.
06 - Place the assembled pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, until the crust is golden and cheese is bubbling.
07 - Remove pizza from oven, sprinkle with chopped fresh dill, slice, and serve immediately.

# Notes:

01 - For a crispier crust, bake directly on a pizza stone preheated in the oven.
