Heads up — These Instructions Are for Take & Bake Items Only
Baking on a Pizza Stone (Recommended)
- Preheat oven to 450°F with pizza stone inside the oven. The stone needs to be HOT — about 45 minutes of preheating.
Pro Tip Your oven is never fully pre-heated when it beeps! Let it pre-heat another 20 minutes after it says it's ready. A hot stone is the key to a crispy bottom.
- Take pizza out of freezer and set on countertop while oven is preheating.
- Remove frozen pizza from pizza tray and place directly on the pre-heated pizza stone.
- Bake pizza for 21–24 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling. Enjoy!
Baking Directly on Oven Rack
- Preheat oven to 450°F for about 30 minutes.
Pro Tip Your oven is never fully pre-heated when it beeps! Let it pre-heat another 20 minutes after it says it's ready.

Baking on Aluminum Baking Tray (Soft Crust)
- Preheat oven to 450°F for about 30 minutes.
Pro Tip Your oven is never fully pre-heated when it beeps! Let it pre-heat another 20 minutes after it says it's ready.
- Take pizza out of freezer and set on countertop while oven is preheating.
- Place pizza on an aluminum pizza tray and into the oven.
- Bake pizza for 23–24 minutes until the cheese is bubbling. The crust will be softer using this method — perfect for those who prefer a tender bottom. Enjoy!
Pro Tips for Perfect Pizza
Pizza stone is worth it. If you make pizza more than a few times a year, invest in a pizza stone. The crispy crust difference is significant — and it’s reusable for years.
Don’t skip the preheat time. A truly hot oven (or stone) is the key to a crust that’s crispy on the bottom and bubbly on top. The temperature drops the moment the cold pizza goes in.
Use parchment paper for stone transfers. If you’re using a pizza stone, place the pizza on parchment paper to slide on and off the hot stone easily and safely.
Add fresh toppings after baking for the freshest flavor — basil leaves, arugula, drizzles of olive oil, or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes elevate the whole pie.
Naked crust is a game-changer. Top with your favorite ingredients to make pizza night an event. Family pizza-making is a celiac-safe activity everyone can join.
Storage & Reheating
How to Store & Reheat Leftover Pizza
Refrigerate leftover slices in an airtight container or wrapped tightly. Our favorite way to reheat is in the air fryer or oven for the best texture — we recommend 350°F until warm and crispy again. Microwaves work in a pinch but tend to make gluten-free crust rubbery.
