    The Grandma pizza is my favorite pizza to make and once you see how easy it is to make, it's going to become yours as well.  Created at Umberto's of New Hyde Park in Nassau County, Long Island, this amazing pizza, can now be found in most of the New York metro area.  Everything you've ever wanted to know about the technique and ingredients needed to create the perfect Grandma pizza is below.

    What is Grandma pizza?

    Grandma pizza is unique and quite different from the ubiquitous traditional New York pizza.

    It is a fairly thin sheet-pan pizza that's baked in a pan that has been heavily coated with olive oil.  This creates the perfect environment to fry the bottom of the pizza giving the Grandma pizza that unmistakable crunch!

    Grandma pizza contains sliced mozzarella cheese and randomly scattered thick plum tomatoes on top. 

    Kind of like an upside-down pie.

    It's almost always drizzled with a heavy dose of garlic-infused olive oil and finished with some Sicilian oregano and Pecorino Romano cheese.

    Just talking about it makes me want to make one right now!

     

    Where did Grandma pizza come from?

    The Grandma pie was created on Long Island at Umberto's of New Hyde Park.  Its popularity soared in the 2000s and onward in the New York metro area. 

    Fun fact:  Umberto's would often make special deliveries for the New York Giants and Yankees.  I'm sure the Mets and Jets like it too. 😉

    Though the Grandma pie isn't quite as well known as a traditional New York pizza or a New York Sicilian, it's still very well known amongst New Yorkers.   

    Some of the more popular places amongst the hipster crowd will create their own names for the style, but basically, it's a thin sheet pan pizza. 

    Just like the one your Nonna would make.

    Ingredients shown: Locatelli Pecorino Romano, San Marzano tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, olive oil, garlic, and Sicilian oregano.

    How to make the dough

    Each number corresponds to the numbered written steps below.

    Note: Mass measurements will always be more accurate than volume measurements.  For doughs and bread, this is a good thing, because it provides absolute consistency.  I only use mass measurements for baking/dough recipes and always stick to standard cups, tablespoons, etc. when "cooking".  But, I also provide the volume (standard U.S. customary) measurements here and in the recipe card below.

    Bakers Percentages: 64% hydration, .4% yeast, 2% salt, 3.4% oil, 1.2% sugar

    Note:  Baker's percentages will allow you to scale the dough amount up or down depending on how much you need.  To use baker's percentages you simply divide the amount of flour in a recipe by 100 and then multiply that number by the percentages listed above.

    1. Weigh out or measure 406 grams (3.25 cups) of bread flour, 2 grams (½ teaspoon) of instant yeast, 8 grams (1.5 teaspoons) of fine sea salt, and 4 grams (1 teaspoon) of sugar and combine into a large bowl. 
    2. Mix the dry ingredients together.

    Grandma pizza recipe process shot collage group number one.

    1. Pour 9 ounces of cold water into another large bowl.  Slowly add the dry ingredients to the water and mix together.
    2. Pour 14 grams or 1 tablespoon of olive oil all over the dough and continue to mix well to incorporate all of the ingredients.
    3. Place the dough onto a large work surface (a plastic cutting board or granite/marble countertop work best) and begin kneading. To knead, you want to fold the dough over and press down and away on the cutting board with a bit of force.  Turn the dough 90 degrees and repeat.  Knead for at least 5 minutes.  If the dough becomes too sticky, cover it for 30 minutes with plastic or an inverted clean bowl and let the dough warm up.  Return to kneading (just make sure to knead for at least 5 minutes total) and then form a dough ball.
    4. You do not need a perfect dough ball for Grandma pizza so don't go crazy.  To form the ball, fold the dough tight and create a seam.  Rotate the dough and fold again.  Do this 20 times, then pinch the seam side.  Place the dough ball seam side down in an oiled container and cover with plastic wrap.  Refrigerate the dough for at least 12 hours to cold ferment.  Do 24-48 hours if you can plan ahead.

    Grandma pizza recipe process shot collage group number two.

    1. Remove the dough 2 hours prior to use to warm up.  Oil the sheet pan with a ⅜ cup of olive oil.  You need plenty of oil.  Remove the dough and place it into the oiled pan.  Using your fingers press down and try to stretch the dough into the pan.  You will not be able to do this right away.
    2. Cover the sheet pan with plastic wrap and wait 45 minutes, before returning to stretch the dough.  Depending on how warm the dough is, you might need to repeat the process one more time to completely fill the pan.

    How to make the best Grandma pizza

    Each number corresponds to the numbered written steps below.

    1. Hand crush 1 (28 ounce) can of whole San Marzano or other good quality plum tomatoes in a large bowl.
    2. After hand crushing, strain the tomatoes and save the juice for another purpose.  You want to be left with thick tomato pulp with minimal juice.  Season the tomatoes with a ½ teaspoon of Kosher salt, mix well, and set aside.

    Recipe process shot collage group number three.

    1. Combine 3 tablespoons of olive oil with 3 cloves of minced garlic in a small bowl to create the garlic oil.
    2. Preheat the oven to 450f and set the rack to the lowest level.  Here I am stretching the dough again.  Be sure to keep it covered with plastic after stretching.
    3. I highly recommend buying sliced mozzarella cheese at your local deli or supermarket.  If not using already sliced mozzarella, a partially frozen block of cheese is easier to slice.  You'll need 12-16 ounces of sliced mozzarella.  The exact weight isn't as important as covering the dough.
    4. Now that the dough has filled the pan almost completely, we can move on to assembly and cooking.

    Recipe process shot collage group number four.

    1. In pic 7 above I am pinning a corner with my hands then placing the cheese down and applying light pressure.  This will lock in the corners and prevent them from moving too much.  Layer the remaining cheese in an overlapping shingle pattern, leaving about a ¼" around the edges.
    2. Distribute the tomatoes all over the cheese in a random pattern.  Resist the urge to over sauce.  The tomatoes will spread out during the cooking and will create the characteristic Grandma pizza pattern.
    3. Drizzle a couple of tablespoons of garlic oil all over the pizza.  If you love garlic, use more.  Bake the pizza in the oven on the lowest rack for 12 minutes, rotating 180 degrees after 6 minutes.  After 12 minutes check the bottom of the pizza with a spatula.  If the pizza is nice and brown, move it to the top oven rack and cook for 6 more minutes. 
    4. Remove the pizza from the oven at 18 minutes.  Sprinkle a few tablespoons of Pecorino Romano cheese all over the pizza. 

    Grandma pizza recipe process shot collage group number 5.

    1. Sprinkle ½ to 1 teaspoon of oregano on the pizza.  In pic 11 I'm using Sicilian oregano and crumbling it in my hands.  Return the pizza to the top rack and cook for 2 more minutes.  Additionally, if the Grandma pizza is not crisp enough on top, broil for 30-60 seconds but watch carefully.  Normally the pizza does not need to be broiled.
    2. Here is your perfect Grandma pizza.  

    Overhead shot of pan pizza.

    That is how to make the real-deal, New York Grandma pizza.  It is the easiest of the 3 types of New York pizza - the hardest part is waiting for the dough to cold ferment, but it is worth it!

    What type of pan for Grandma Pizza?

    Many pizza shops use heavy steel pans for their Sicilian and Grandma pies.  They are cooking their pies in a deck oven which browns the bottom quicker.   Most home cooks can't replicate this, though if you have a baking or pizza steel as large as your pan you could try.

    If you were to attempt to make this Grandma pizza in a thick steel or cast iron pan in your home oven, the bottom wouldn't get brown enough in time.

    For this reason, I recommend using an aluminum pan on the bottom of your oven.  If anything, you'll have to worry more about the bottom burning.  An aluminum pan is thin and will crisp the bottom of the pizza very quickly on the lowest level of the oven. 

    A dark aluminum pan like the one seen throughout my pictures works amazingly well.  It's a LloydPans 16 x 12" Grandma pan.

    You can also use a standard 18 x 13 half sheet pan with great results.

    Oven temperature and placement

    Now you know the type of pan, but what about the oven?

    I cook all of my pizzas in a standard 20-year-old GE oven.  I have not tested this pizza using a convection oven, so you may need to adjust the cooking time, oven temperature levels, and of course pan placement.

    Note:  Many experts state that convection adds 20-25F degrees to recipes that call for a conventional oven.  

    As mentioned above in the detailed steps you should check the bottom of the pizza after 12 minutes of cooking.  If the bottom is very blond, finish cooking it on the bottom rack for the remaining 8 minutes.   

    If you're having problems with browning, you could pour 3 more tablespoons of olive oil under the pizza.  Grandma pizza uses a lot of olive oil!

    Inevitably, the temperature of all ovens fluctuates.  Your oven is not my oven, and so on.  You may need to play around with the placement and temperatures a bit, but I'm confident that with these instructions you'll be able to make a Grandma pizza that looks just like mine.

    Making Grandma pizza dough in a Kitchen Aid mixer

    I've shown the process here and on YouTube, (for more pizza check out the 20 pizza videos on my channel) using hand mixing.

    Why?  Because I like to show without special equipment.  But if you want to use your mixer all you have to do is:

    1. Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl and place half of them and all the water into the Kitchen Aid mixer bowl.
    2. With the dough hook attached, mix for 1 minute on low (speed level 1) and begin adding in the remaining dry ingredients.
    3. Drizzle the olive oil into the mixing bowl and continue at speed level 1 for 4 more minutes or until the dough is sticking well to the bread hook.
    4. Remove the dough, hand knead for 1 minute and cover for 40 minutes.  After 40 minutes, ball the dough, place it in an oiled proofing container and get it in the fridge for at least 12 hours.  Simple!

    Ingredients

    For the dough

    • 406 grams bread flour or 3 ¼ cups
    • 2 grams instant yeast or half teaspoon
    • 8 grams fine sea salt or 1 ½ teaspoons
    • 4 grams sugar or 1 teaspoon
    • 260 grams cold water 9 ounces
    • 14 grams olive oil or 1 tablespoon

    For the Grandma pizza

    • 1 ~24 ounce dough ball from above
    • 1 28 ounce can San Marzano plum tomatoes hand crushed and completely drained of liquid
    • 12-16 ounces sliced mozzarella cheese weight will vary, but use enough to cover the pizza completely
    • 3 tablespoons Pecorino Romano grated
    • ¾ cup olive oil divided
    • 3 cloves garlic minced
    • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
    • 1 teaspoon Sicilian oregano or Italian

    Instructions

    For the dough

    • Place water in a bowl large enough to hold both the water and all the dry ingredients and still have room to spare. Mix together dry ingredients in another bowl.
    • Add dry ingredients to water a bit at a time and mix thoroughly to form a dry rough mass.
    • Pour the oil over the dough, mix again to scrape off any dough residue stuck to side of the bowl, and place the rough shaggy dough onto a work surface.
    • Knead the dough for 5-7 minutes.  If the dough is too sticky, place a clean bowl inverted over the dough and wait 30 minutes before resuming.  Return to kneading (just make sure to knead for at least a total of 5 minutes).
    • Place the bowl over the dough once more and let sit for 30-40 minutes to warm up before forming the dough ball.
    • After 40 minutes pull the dough towards its end repeatedly to form a smooth ball.  Pinch the seam side and place the dough ball seam side down into an oiled bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap.  Refrigerate for at least 12 hours before using. 

    For the Grandma pizza

    • Take the dough out of the fridge 2 hours prior to using. Do not uncover the bowl. Oil the bottom of a 12 by 16 sheet pan (or standard half sheet pan) with ⅜'s cup of olive oil. You need to use a lot of oil!
    • Remove the dough from the bowl and place it into the pan. With your fingertips begin pressing the dough into the corners of the pan. You will not be able to do this in one attempt.  Place plastic over the pan and let the dough warm up. 
    • After 45 minutes remove the plastic and try to stretch it again to the size of the pan.  Cover with plastic wrap and repeat process one more time until the dough has completely filled the pan.  Cover the dough one more time and set aside.  Preheat oven to 450f and set one rack to the lowest level of the oven and one to the highest.
    • Hand crush the plum tomatoes and drain the juice.  Save the juice for another use.  Add a ½ teaspoon of kosher salt to the tomatoes and set aside.
    • Mince the garlic and add to a bowl with a ¼ cup of olive oil.
    • Remove the plastic from the pan and if required press the dough into the edges.  Right away layer the mozzarella cheese in an overlapping shingle pattern, leaving the outside ¼ to ½ inch uncovered.  Start with a corner.  By pressing the dough down slightly you can lock the dough into the corner.  Make sure the dough is layered completely with the mozzarella slices. 
    • Next, add the drained plum tomatoes to the pizza.  You can use 45 degree lines or spoon the sauce all over.  Leave some open areas.  Don’t coat it all.  Take the garlic oil and drizzle 3 tablespoons of the oil and garlic pieces all over the pizza.
    • Place the pizza onto the lowest rack and cook for 12 minutes rotating the pan 180 degrees after 6 minutes. 
    • After 12 minutes remove the pizza from oven and check the bottom for browning. If the pizza is well-browned, bake on top rack for 6 more minutes. Otherwise, leave the pizza on the bottom rack for 6 more minutes.
    • After 18 minutes of baking remove the pizza and sprinkle with the oregano and Pecorino Romano cheese. Bake for 2 minutes more on top oven rack.
    • If the Grandma pizza is not crisp enough on top, you can broil for 30-60 seconds.  Watch very carefully though!
    • The total cooking time will be approximately 20-22 minutes.  Let the pizza sit for 5 minutes before cutting and serving.  Enjoy!

    Notes

    • The dough can be cold fermented for as little as 12 hours in the fridge, to as long as 72 hours.
    • If refrigerating the dough ball in a metal bowl use a bit more oil to coat.  The metal bowls tend to stick more than plastic.
    • Cooking time will vary depending on the exact oven temp.  After 12 minutes of cooking on the lowest rack the pizza should be very brown and crisp.  If it's completely blond the pizza should be cooked for the remaining 8-10 minutes on the lowest rack.
    • The Grandma pizza needs a lot of oil.  More than you think!  The oil helps develop the amazing crispy bottom, so please use enough of it.
    • Leftovers can be saved for up to 3 days and the pizza can be reheated at 350f on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet until hot.  About 10 minutes.

      Hello! Very excited to have found your site! I just made 4 dough balls of your NY pizza recipe! Can I use that to make the grandma pie? Or is the dough different?

      Thank you!!

        Thank you! All my pizza dough uses the same recipe. You can use two of the 12-ounce dough balls from the NY pizza recipe and combine them for one 24 ounce dough ball which will be enough for this recipe. You can ball them together and cover for an hour, then take that larger ball and start the normal stretching procedure. Hope that makes sense.

            Hi Mike, glad you're enjoying the recipes. After you make the pie, remove it from the pan and let it cool on a wire rack. After it cools you can put it back in the pan to transport it to your friend's house. Then reheat at 350f until warm.

      Hello Jim, Thank you for your excellent videos on making pizza; you're really very good at explaining methods and that's been very educational for me. One question, Jim: I've heard via a couple of pizza experts that one shouldn't mix salt with yeast right off the bat as this action will kill the yeast and henceforth inhibit the rising process. I did your grandma dough last evening and all dry ingredients are incorporated from the get-go. Your thoughts, please? Thank you once again, Jim! Patrick

        Hey Patrick. Thanks for liking the videos. You can google salt with instant dry yeast and you will find a lot of info on the subject. Suffice it to say Instant dry yeast, especially at the levels we are using in this recipe doesn't degrade the yeast at all. This is a quote from PMQ (pizza marker's quarterly) with Tom Lehmann who is one of the most recognized experts on pizza making. "When using a product like instant dry yeast (IDY), there is no problem in allowing the IDY to come into direct contact with the salt or sugar, even for extended periods of time, as long as all of the ingredients are dry. This works so well that it is a common practice in making “goodie bags,” as well as complete pizza dough mixes." Instant dry yeast is great and I recommend using it for all your pizza-making needs. If using another type of yeast you should mix the salt in last. Hope that helps.

      If I wanted to add pepperoni to the top, should I add them at the beginning or would they get to browned/blacked by the time the pizza is done? Or would I add them halfway through approx.?? Thanks for the recipe!

        Hi JP. You can spread the pepperoni right from the outset provided you use cupping pepperoni (not sandwich style pepperoni) and slice the pieces about 1/16 to 1/8" thick. For this size pizza, you will need about 10-12 ounces of cupping pepperoni. I used Boar's Head natural casing pepperoni when I made it on YouTube. Here is the Grandma pepperoni video: https://youtu.be/QzBW6VoWNgU

      Hi Jim,
      I moved away from Hicksville almost 14 years ago and haven’t been able to have a grandma pie since! I just made this recipe and it was fantastic. Flavors and crisp of the crust was perfect. If I wanted to get the crust *super* thin (almost sunken), would I decrease the proving time? Or cut off some of the dough?
      Thank you so much for the recipe and the video!

        Hi Liz. Glad you enjoyed it. You can try to roll it out and fit it in the pan right away. Since we are waiting 45 minutes between stretching the dough is indeed rising a bit. Most pizzerias will run the dough through a "sheeter" machine to fit it right away and get the order ready in the required time. Thanks for liking the recipes and videos!

      Made this today. Used my Kitchenaid stand mixer to mix and kneed the dough. Easy peazy. Since I baked it the same day I made the dough, I doubled the amount of yeast. Added 12 slices of Boars Head sandwich pepperoni on top. Used a shiny aluminum half sheet pan to bake it, so left it on the lowest rack for the entire time to get a nicely browned bottom crust. Family loved it.

      This is the third Sip and Feast pizza recipe I've made. They were all great.

        Hey, Carl. Thanks for the comment on oven placement. It's so hard to tell people that they need to check and adjust times for their own oven. My oven would burn the pizza on the bottom rack past 10-12 minutes or so, but some ovens like yours need the whole time. Glad it was a hit and that I'm 3/3. Looking forward to hearing how the next one goes!
