These 15 Recipes, Tools + Upgrades Will Seriously Level Up Your Homemade Pizza

Toppings

Mike's Hot Honey Original ($11)

Drizzle some hot honey on top of your pie before or after taking it out of the oven. It'll offer a sweet and spicy kick that goes with just about everything.

Applewood Smoked Honey Maple Pecans ($9)

A little bit sweet, a little bit salty, and a whole lot of crunchy, these babies are the perfect way to add texture to pizza. Even though maple pecan is usually a fall flavor, you don't have to wait for September to sprinkle them on.

Smallhold Fancy Mushroom Pack ($35)

If you love mushrooms on your pizza (we're big fans), step up your game with these nutty, subtle Lion's Mane mushrooms.

Creminelli Artisan Prosciutto ($7)

This salty meat isn't just for charcuterie boards, although brie would make for another great homemade pizza upgrade! Replace your usual pepperoni with prosciutto for a whole new flavor.

Best Pizza Ovens

Camp Chef Italia Artisan Pizza Oven ($400)

This portable oven will give you artisan pizza without leaving your own backyard. It's designed to replicate wood-fired brick ovens, and since you have total control over the heat, you can get your pie just right.

Sienna Brick Textured Pizza Oven ($167, was $200)

This oven is handmade in Mexico. Since it's made from clay (and you need to build a fire to cook with it), you'll get the flavor you can only get from real clay ovens!

Big Horn Stainless Steel Pizza Oven ($243)

You can take apart this oven for all your cleaning, storage, and moving needs, and it takes just a few minutes to be assembled and installed. After it's done preheating, your pizzas can cook in as little as two minutes, and it works with other foods too!

Roccbox ($499)

Even though this restaurant-grade portable oven (which uses gas or wood) can reach temps over 900 degrees, the safe-touch silicone jacket will keep friends and family members from burning themselves.

Other Appliances

Pizza Scizza ($35)

If you're over pizza rollers, use these pizza scissors instead! The appliance has a spatula end so that you can slide it under the crust and cut, even if it's not sitting on a cutting board.

Pizza Roulette Cut & Serve Board ($50)

This board is a surefire way to make any pizza dinner more fun. Everyone's chores are revealed when they grab a slice, and it'll make cleaning easy as (pizza) pie.

Black Metal Spiral Cone ($7)

You don't need to change up your flavors or toppings for a whole new pizza experience! Roll up your pie while it's still hot and rest it in this spiral to help it keep its shape.

Pizza Cutter Wheel ($11)

This compact pizza cutter takes up a lot less space than its counterparts, and it disassembles so you can give it a thorough cleaning when you need to.
