Step-by-Step Process to Reheat Domino’s Pizza in the Oven
Step 1: Preheat the Oven to 375°F
Firstly, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Some ovens operate at a higher efficiency than others so be sure to monitor your pizza if this is the first time you are doing it!
Step 2: Line a Baking Tray with Foil
While you are waiting for the oven to preheat, line a baking tray with aluminum foil or a baking sheet and place the pizza on top. This avoids having a messy tray and oven at the end.
Step 3: Put the Pizza in the Oven
Once the oven is warmed up, place the pizza slices on the lined tray and then into the oven. Make sure to wear heat-protective gloves when operating the oven. Once the pizza is done, allow it to cool before enjoying!
How Long Does It Take To Reheat Pizza in the Oven?
Now that you know the steps, how long should the pizza remain in the oven?
