If you’re craving brick-oven crispy pizza crust, you can get the same results right a home with grilled pizza. And this pizza is everything! It\u2019s not just any pizza. It\u2019s a thin crust pizza! A thin and crispy crust pizza. Grilled to perfection on my ELAG Lemax glass ceramic electric grill<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Who would have thought that you can make restaurant quality pizza right here at home? Yes, it\u2019s true. A homemade pizza crust prepared on the grill gives you that delicious crispy crust that you can only expect in an Italian restaurant with a proper pizza oven. Hallelujah to that!<\/p>\n

My two favourite veggie-packed pizza recipes<\/h2>\n

I\u2019ve been making a lot of pizzas lately, but these are my two favourite healthy pizza ideas that are so delicious, you\u2019ll want to make a second batch \u2014 of each! The first is made with a traditional pizza sauce, dried herbs, grilled eggplant, olives, capers, arugula, and pine nuts \u2014 cheese of course (buffalo mozzarella and parmesan).<\/p>\n

And the second is slightly different. It\u2019s made with an umami-rich sun-dried tomato pesto, saut\u00e9ed mushrooms and red onion \u2014 and of course a little cheese. And just like the first, it’s topped with arugula and pine nuts. I\u2019m undecided to which one I love more. So I had to share both of them with you!<\/p>\n

Homemade pizza – made your way<\/h2>\n

Grilling pizza indoors on the LeMax grill<\/a> is a favourite past-time for my family. And now that the kids are teenagers, and there tastes have changed we have finally moved on from Pizza Hawaii or Salami Pizza to healthier options. Transition: no meat, less cheese, more veggies. The kind of pizza I truly love. And the best thing about making pizza at home is that you can make it exactly as you like it. The most important step is the preparation and cooking of the pizza dough so that you can get that restaurant quality taste and texture that keeps you coming back for more.

Grilled Pizza and LeMax to the test<\/h2>\n

And grilling pizza is easy. Really easy. And that\u2019s why I want to share with you my step-by-step instructions (and video!) for using your tabletop grill to make homemade pizza.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a trick of course, but it\u2019s an easy one. The secret is first grilling the pizza crust on medium-high heat (level 8 on the LeMax) for a mere 3 minutes, then flipping it and reducing the heat (level 5), add your sauce base and choice of toppings, then increase the heat just slightly (level 6) and continue grilling until the cheese is melted and the base is golden brown (about 5-6 minutes in all). Yep, it\u2019s that easy.<\/p>\n

All you need is a hot grill and all of your toppings measured out and prepped before beginning. It\u2019s heavenly. And if you have a pizza peel that\u2019s a bonus, but it\u2019s not needed at all. Even if your pizza doesn\u2019t look exactly perfect once getting it on the grill, it\u2019ll taste just as amazing. Trust me!<\/p>\n

You can make pizza dough from scratch using my grill pizza dough or your own family favourite recipe. Alternatively, I can recommend preparing your own using a package of organic spelt pizza dough, found at your local supermarket.<\/p>\n

\nLeMax tips:<\/h2>\n

The great thing about grilling pizza on the LeMax grill is that you can do this anywhere in your home. You don\u2019t need to worry about any smoke from grease or fat cooking (this also means quick and easy clean-up). So you also don\u2019t need a fan. Of course, you will smell the pizza as it cooks, but this smells delicious! And naturally, when weather allows, the LeMax is also perfect for grilling outdoors.<\/p>\n
