These 4 ingredient mini pizza recipes take just 20 minutes to make from start to finish thanks to refrigerated biscuit dough! They’re a family favorite at our house for an easy weeknight dinner because everyone can customize their own personal pizza with their favorite toppings!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 16.3 can of refrigerated biscuits
  • 1 cup pizza sauce
  • 8 oz. shredded mozzarella
  • 1/2 cup mini pepperonis
  • cornmeal for dusting the pan
  • grated Parmesan for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Roll biscuits into flat rounds on a lightly floured surface.
  3. Dust 2 baking sheets with corn meal. Place biscuit crusts onto them about an inch or so apart.
  4. Add 1-2 tablespoons of sauce to each biscuit crust. Then divide cheese evenly between crusts.
  5. Add pepperoni and any other desired toppings.
  6. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until the crust is cooked through and golden brown on the edges. Broil if desired until cheese gets golden brown.
  7. Garnish with grated Parmesan and enjoy!

Notes

I’m a big fan of grating your own cheese because pre-shredded cheeses don’t melt as well as fresh. The trick to grating a soft cheese like mozzarella is to pop the cheese ball in the freezer for a few minutes first!

Go heavy on the cheese! If you’ve never made pizzas at home before (or if it’s been a while), be warned that one light layer of grated cheese will melt pretty thin. Pile on more cheese than you think you need, to get a good top layer.

Be sure to dust the sheet pan with cornmeal. Pizza dough and biscuit dough are sticky. I have destroyed at least a few pizzas in the vain attempt to liberate them from the pan when I forgot the cornmeal. 

Two words: dessert pizza. Instead of savory toppings, try chocolate sauce, mini marshmallows, and chocolate chips!
