Ingredients
- 1 can biscuit dough
- 1/4 cup tomato sauce
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese
- 1/4 cup mini pepperonis
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it reaches the right temperature for baking your mini deep dish pizzas.
- Prepare Muffin Pan: Grease a large muffin pan thoroughly to prevent the biscuit dough from sticking and to help the pizzas maintain their shape.
- Shape the Dough: Press one biscuit into each muffin cavity, gently pushing it down and up the sides to create a well in the center that will hold your toppings.
- Add Toppings: Spoon about half a tablespoon of tomato sauce into each dough well, then sprinkle approximately 1 tablespoon of shredded cheese on top, followed by three mini pepperonis for that classic pizza flavor.
- Bake: Place the muffin pan into the preheated oven and bake for 12 minutes, or until the biscuit crusts turn golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Notes
- Feel free to use your favorite type of cheese or add extra toppings like sliced olives or bell peppers for variety.
- Mini pepperonis can be substituted with regular pepperoni slices cut into smaller pieces if unavailable.
- Make sure to grease the muffin pan well to easily remove the mini pizzas after baking.
- Serve warm for the best texture and flavor.
