Rather than making pizza dough from scratch, patting out biscuit dough for mini pizzas is a quick, fun shortcut that older kids, like our eleven-year-old niece Lauren, will enjoy joining in on. And the kids can top their own pizzas, too, if they like, piling on the cheese and pepperoni or, if you’ve got a strange kid who likes them like Bobby always did, with sliced olives.
Ingredients:
- One 12-ounce can refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
- 1/2 cup prepared tomato sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella (8 ounces)
- 4 ounces thinly sliced pepperoni rounds (optional)
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (1 ounce)
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
- Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and use the palm of your hand to flatten the dough to 1/4 inch in thickness. Divide the sauce evenly among the biscuits, top with a pinch of the oregano, then layer the mozzarella, pepperoni (if using), and Parmesan cheese.
- Bake until the biscuits are golden and the cheese is melted, about 15 minutes. Allow the pizzas to cool slightly and serve warm.
- Buy the pepperoni presliced in packages (found in your supermarket’s deli section) to make assembly even easier.
