class=\"wprm-recipe-header wprm-recipe-notes-header wprm-block-text-bold\" id=\"notes-and-tips\">NOTES &#038; TIPS<\/h3><br \/><strong>Pan<\/strong>. Use a 9 inch diameter round baking pan with high sides. You may use a cake pan, but usually cake pans have low sides about 1.5 inches tall and that\u2019s too low for a deep dish pizza. I recommend using any round 9 inch baking pan that is at least 3 inches tall. Personally, I used a springform pan, which was perfect for this pizza. Nonstick is good, but you don\u2019t have to worry about the pizza sticking to the pan. As the pizza bakes, it will shrink a bit from the sides and it does not stick to the bottom. It\u2019s easy and effortless to slide out the pizza, and even more so if you use a springform pan.\u00a0If you want to double the recipe, you can use two 9 inch pans or one 14 inch pan.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>Dough.<\/strong>\u00a0I adapted a\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.kingarthurflour.com\/recipes\/chicago-style-deep-dish-pizza-recipe\">pizza crust recipe<\/a>\u00a0from King Arthur Flour. The dough is simple\u00a0to prepare\u00a0and quite easy to handle with your hands. The hardest part is stretching it out in a large circle. You\u2019ll want a large flat surface like a baking mat, and a rolling pin will be helpful to flatten out the dough. It\u2019s really important to make sure that your dough is flattened out in a circle large enough to fill the bottom and up the sides of your baking pan. The dough should be stretched out enough to go ALL THE WAY UP\u00a0the sides of the pan (about 3 inches high) so that it can hold all of the pizza\u2019s contents and truly be\u00a0<em>deep dish<\/em>.\u00a0For a healthier dough option, check out the almond flour dough used in\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.savorytooth.com\/keto-pizza\/\">low carb pizza<\/a>.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>Filling. <\/strong>In this recipe, I use mozzarella cheese, crushed tomatoes, saut\u00e9ed spinach, and some seasonings. Regarding the tomatoes, make sure you use a can of crushed tomatoes and not diced tomatoes as it makes a big difference in the texture. Also, you\u2019ll want to do a quick drain of the crushed tomatoes beforehand (about 10 minutes in a colander). For the spinach, you can use that if you\u2019re a spinach lover like me or replace it with your favorite pizza topping. Great ideas include artichokes, mushrooms, and sausage if you want some meat. The only requirement is that you need to lightly saut\u00e9 the veggies beforehand to remove any liquid. Otherwise you\u2019ll end up with a watery pizza. For my seasonings, I used garlic powder, oregano, basil, and a little bit of salt. Feel free to use whatever herbs you have! This is your pizza and you should customize it to your liking.<\/span><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n<a id=\"photos-and-tips\"><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2174,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2601,1433],"tags":[41,30],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Chicago Deep Dish Pizza with Spinach - Savory Tooth<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Don\u2019t live in Chicago but craving deep dish pizza?
