Description
This easy Biscuit Pizza Casserole combines refrigerated biscuits, pizza sauce, mozzarella, and favorite toppings in one family-friendly dinner.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cans refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
- 1 15-ounce jar pizza sauce
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 to 1½ cups pizza toppings, such as pepperoni or cooked Italian sausage
- Nonstick cooking spray
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, optional
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, optional
- Red pepper flakes, mushrooms, olives, bell peppers, onions, basil, or spinach, optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
- Open the biscuit cans, separate the biscuits, and cut each biscuit into quarters or smaller bite-size pieces.
- Spread the biscuit pieces across the bottom of the dish in a mostly single layer, placing overlapping pieces near the edges.
- Spoon the pizza sauce evenly over the biscuit dough without pressing the pieces flat.
- Sprinkle the mozzarella over the sauce, then add pepperoni, cooked sausage, or other toppings.
- Add Italian seasoning and Parmesan, if desired.
- Bake uncovered for 25 to 30 minutes, checking the center for fully cooked biscuit dough.
- Cover loosely with foil if the cheese browns before the center finishes cooking.
- Let the casserole rest for at least 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Cut the biscuit dough into small pieces so the center cooks evenly.
- Use cooked and drained sausage rather than raw meat.
- Place spinach and other delicate greens beneath the cheese to prevent burning.
- For extra insurance against raw dough, prebake the biscuit pieces for 5 to 10 minutes before adding the sauce and toppings.
- Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Reheat leftovers in an air fryer at 325°F for 4 to 6 minutes or in a 350°F oven for about 10 minutes.
