  • • Lightly flour your dough before placing it in the pie iron to prevent sticking.
  • • Don’t overstuff! Too many toppings = messy disaster.
  • • Rotate the pie iron while cooking for even heat distribution and a perfectly crispy crust.
  • • Let the pizza cool for a couple of minutes before biting in.
