What Type of Wrap Should I Use?
For the best results, choose soft flour wraps or tortillas that hold toppings without getting soggy. Fresh wraps provide a tender base, while slightly thicker varieties help support heavier cheese and toppings without tearing. Avoid very thin or corn tortillas since they tend to crack under heat.
If you only have frozen wraps, thaw them fully at room temperature and pat dry to remove excess moisture. Dried wraps are not ideal, but if using homemade or store-bought dried flatbreads, consider lightly brushing with olive oil before adding toppings to keep them moist and flavorful.
Options for Ingredient Alternatives
- Swap butter for olive oil in the sauce for a richer, Mediterranean flavor.
- Use turkey pepperoni or sliced olives instead of traditional pepperoni.
- Substitute shredded mozzarella with cheddar, gouda, or dairy-free cheese.
- Opt for whole milk or plant-based milk (almond, oat) if making dough or sauce.
- Try vanilla or almond extract in dipping sauces for a subtle twist.
- Use dried herbs like oregano or basil if fresh herbs are unavailable.
- If using coconut oil in any part, chill the dough after mixing to maintain structure.
The Biggest Challenges While Baking
- Adding pepperoni or delicate toppings too early can cause curling or burning; add them last and gently.
- Using butter straight from the fridge can make dough too stiff; soften to room temperature first.
- Overmixing dough or sauce can affect texture; stir just until combined.
- Dry dough is a common issue; add milk one tablespoon at a time to adjust consistency.
- Not chilling dough before baking can cause spreading; chill for 30 minutes to firm up.
Storage & Freezing Instructions
Store your cooked Skeleton Pizza wraps at room temperature for up to 2 hours. For longer storage, wrap tightly in foil or plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 to 3 days. To freeze, layer wrapped pizzas with parchment paper between each in an airtight container or freezer bag; freeze for up to 1 month.
For make-ahead, assemble the wraps but do not bake. Wrap tightly and freeze. When ready to bake, thaw overnight in the fridge and bake as usual.
