Deep Dish Pizza vs Thin Crust
Every once in a while someone will get all wound up about which is better: deep dish vs. thin crust. But let's face it, the answer is that they are both awesome. Pizza is possibly the greatest food ever created. It may not appeal to the keto people who are trying to look like fit starving people, but it is one of the reasons that life on this planet orbiting a cold indifferent sun is worthwhile. If you feel like indulging in a true pizza pie where every bite is a little slice of heaven, then look no further.

Keep It Deep
The two secrets to this recipe are to get spring form pans (the same pans we use to make ice cream cake) and to drape the dough on the sides and then crimp it at the top so it doesn't shrink back down. The spring form pan makes delivering the deep dish pizza when it is baked much easier. If you try to dig it out of a traditional pan, it will be somewhat difficult and could get messy fast. If you don't drape it on the sides and crimp it to the top of the pan, then invariably, one of the sides droops back down. You want to keep it deep so that you can fill it with goodness. Plus, when it's done baking and you release the springform pan to reveal the deep golden buttery crust you will see people start weeping with joy.
