Ingredients
- 1 can (8 biscuits) refrigerated biscuit dough
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 1/4 cup pepperoni slices, diced (or your preferred pizza toppings)
- 1/4 cup bell pepper, diced (optional)
- 1/4 cup onion, diced (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for greasing muffin tin)
- Parmesan cheese for topping (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a muffin tin with olive oil or cooking spray.
- Open the can of biscuit dough and separate the biscuits. Flatten each biscuit into a small circle using your hands or a rolling pin.
- Place each flattened biscuit into a muffin tin cup, pressing down gently to form a small crust at the bottom.
- Spoon about 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce into each biscuit base.
- Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then add your favorite pizza toppings (such as diced pepperoni, bell peppers, onions, or any other toppings you prefer).
- Sprinkle a pinch of oregano and garlic powder over each muffin for extra flavor.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- If desired, sprinkle with some grated Parmesan cheese once out of the oven for an extra touch of flavor.
- Let the pizza muffins cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
- Vegetarian? Swap the pepperoni for vegetables like mushrooms, olives, spinach, or tomatoes.
- For a BBQ chicken twist, use cooked chicken and BBQ sauce instead of pizza sauce.
- Add multiple layers of cheese, such as cheddar, provolone, or Parmesan, for extra cheesiness.
- For a spicy version, top with jalapeños or red pepper flakes.
- For mini versions, use a mini muffin tin and adjust the baking time slightly.
