Make Pizza Hut Pizza At Home
What’s better than eating pizzas, watching romcoms, and sitting by the fire on a Friday night? Unless it involves puppies, I don’t want to hear it! This Copy Cat Pizza Hut Pan Pizza recipe is from way back. I tried out this recipe from CD Kitchen about eight years ago! The funny thing is that it’s always on my top pages for views. People love this recipe, and it truly tastes just like the personal pan pizza’s from Pizza Hut.
I wanted Kyle to try it last night, so I remade the recipe, and it was still a success! He’s a huge Pizza Hut lover, so it was a real compliment coming from him. I was lame and added all the toppings to my zucchinis since I’m still eating low carb, but it was still good with the replica Pizza Hut sauce. 
For my recipe, I made some changes to the sauce. We made a Hawaiian pizza and a supreme pizza! The key to making the pizza taste so good is using fresh mozzarella instead of the shredded bags.
You can make a ton of the dough beforehand and have a build your own pizza night. 
The best part about this recipe is that it’s so easy and quick to make. The longest part is having the dough rise, but you can clean, prepare toppings, and make the pizza sauce while waiting. If you have any extra dough left, toss it in garlic, butter, Italian seasonings, and bake them! Don’t forget to toss them with parmesan when they’re done baking. You can make breadsticks or garlic knots. When I lived in East Hampton during my college summer, we would always eat Fierro’s garlic knots. 
I’m always team Hawaiian pizza! I’d love to know your favorite.
What is on Hawaiian Pizza?
Hawaiian pizza has ham, onions, and pineapple. 
When it comes to the sauce, it’s important to do some tests test and determine if it needs more seasoning, salt, or parmesan. I changed my sauce up from the original recipe. It’s so good! 
The EXACT replica recipe for Pizza Hut Pan Pizza! The crust is identical, the sauce is sweet and savory like theirs, and you can add as many toppings as you’d like! This is the best Copy Cat Pizza Hut Pizza Recipe!

Ingredients
Pizza Dough
- 1/4 Cup Non-Fat Dry Milk
- 1 1/3 Cup Warm Water
- 1/4 Ounce Dry Yeast small packet
- 1/4 Tsp Salt
- 1 Tbsp Sugar
- 4 Cups All-Purpose Flour
- 6 Tbsps Vegetable Oil
Pizza Sauce
- 8 Ounces Tomato Sauce
- 2 Tsps Dried Oregano
- 2 Tsps Dried Basil
- 1 Tsp Marjoram
- 1 Tsp Garlic Powder
- 1/2 Tsp Onion Powder
- 1/8 Tsp Salt
- 3 Tbsps Parmesan Cheese
Instructions
Pizza Dough
- In a large mixing bowl, add dry milk, yeast, salt, and sugar.
- Add warm water and let it sit for about five minutes.
- Mix in the vegetable oil.
- Fold in the flour until you form the dough. This is much easier when you use your hands.
- Flour your surface and knead the dough for about 5-10 minutes.
- Divide the dough in half. Add three tablespoons of vegetable oil into each of the 9” cake pans.
- Roll the dough out and place them into the pans. Cover the pans and place them in a warm area for one hour to rise. (placed mine in the oven at 90-degrees)
Pizza Sauce
- Use a small mixing bowl to combine the oregano, basil, garlic powder, onion powder, marjoram, salt, and parmesan cheese. Give it a little taste test to see if it needs more salt or seasoning.
Prepare the pizza
- Once the dough has risen, top the pizza with your sauce, fresh mozzarella, and any toppings you want. I added a sprinkle of Italian seasoning on top.
- Bake for 10 minutes at 400-degrees, and then another 6 six minutes at 475-degrees. Make sure you don't get oil on the crust, or it will burn. Let it cook & enjoy!

Wonderful taste
Spray your pans w/ butter oil to give your dough that buttery flavor
It does taste just like pizza hut.
I loved the pizza and honestly and shamelessly like to treat myself everyday. I am bookmarking it to try soonest. I crave for pizza often and this looks yumm
This was literally just like real Pizza Hut Pizza!
Scary alike!
I have actually seen them at Pizza Hut spray the outer edges of crust with buttery spray as soon as the pizza comes out of the oven.
You’re spot on! Pizza Hut puts vegetable oil in the bottom of their pan before the dough to help the pan crust get that crispy texture and when it comes out the edges are sprayed with something called food release which is basically spray vegetable oil with a little butter flavor. I worked the cut table there for years.
Manager at Pizza Hut 10 years. and the pan pizza did not get sprayed. Spatula circled around inner edge , pizza lifted to cutting board and then cut.
Just love love love your co cook
This pizza was just like Pizza Hut! I made my dough the day before and let it rest in the frig I just prefer a 24 hour cool rise. This will be a go to once in a while as I also prefer a thin crust so will switch it up. Cheers!
will the pizza crust become exactly how u made?? By RICE FLOUR??
I have no clue! I don’t think so.
I absolutely love this recipe I had thought I had pinned it and lost it for a while tried a bunch of others never tasted the same this is the real deal so good Super Bowl party tonight I’m so happy I found it again!
I’m always looking for a new pizza crust recipe to try because I have never found a favorite! Have you ever made the dough in a bread maker machine to do the mixing and rising part?
I tried this and yes the crust taste just like pizza hut pizza. My kids loved it
I made this last night and it’s even better than Pizza Hut!! I’ve been making my own pizza dough for years but this one is better
yaya!!!!!!!!thanks for sharing
Can i do more and freeze it for later use ?
After proofing etc , before popping to the oven, freeze it instead.
Thanks
This looks so good. If you use 3 tablespoons of oil in each pan why do you need the butter spray? Is it used only after pizza is baked and then sprayed on the crust for added flavor?
Delicious CopyCat Pizza Hut recipe!
I use a bread machine to make the dough.
So easy and all fresh, this is my go to pizza recipe from now on❤️
Is it just plain flour or bread flour?
I used an all-purpose flour
I hated Pizza Hut growing up but I’ve been craving their thick crust pizzas lately! Thanks for this recipe! ❤️✨

Once my hubby starts allowing more carbs into his diet, I’m going to have to make this!! It looks so good and I’m always a fan when it comes to ‘quick and easy’ recipes, haha!
Make Life Marvelous
If I want to make a big batch of the dough, how much should 1 serving be?
Can I use milk in place of dry milk and eliminate some of the water?
This recipe was incredible and tasted a lot like Pizza Hut. The crust was legit!
Pineapple on pizza = Abomination!
All this good stuff and you put pineapple on it…OMG!
😂 PINEAPPLE FOR LIFE
10 out of 10
Do you need 12 tablespoons of vegetable oil if you mix it into the dough and also put 3 tablespoons in each pan?
It was a beautiful crispy crust.
Fantastic dough.,made it exactly as explained but now im wondering if I could do it in my new lil pizza oven ? so it would be w/out the pans and on the stone,. Im going to give it a whirl this eve…Thanks for an amazing recipe 🙂 God Bless
