Perfect for smaller families that have the craving for deep-dish pizza, this genius recipe is baked in a loaf pan, yielding fewer servings of the Chicago classic. We filled ours with Italian sausage, onion, green bell pepper, pepperoni, shredded mozzarella and plenty of sauce, but you can easily customize the filling to your family’s tastes!
