Ingredients

  • 2 (7.5 oz) cans refrigerated biscuits (see notes)
  • 1 (15 oz) jar pizza sauce
  • 2 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ pound Italian sausage
  • 5 oz package pepperoni (about 25 slices)
  • 1 cup sliced black olives
  • ½ cup diced green bell pepper
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
  3. Brown the sausage: In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, cook the Italian sausage, breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until fully browned. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
  4. Prepare the biscuits: Cut each biscuit into quarters and scatter the pieces evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until slightly puffed and golden.
  5. Layer the toppings: Remove the dish from the oven. Spread the pizza sauce over the baked biscuits. Sprinkle 2 cups of mozzarella cheese on top, followed by the cooked sausage, pepperoni slices, black olives, and green bell pepper. Finish with the remaining ½ cup of mozzarella.
  6. Bake again: Return the dish to the oven and bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden brown.
  7. Finish and serve: Remove from the oven, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese, and serve warm.

Notes

  • If using Grands-style biscuits, you’ll only need about 12, as they are larger than standard biscuits.
  • You can also use frozen Grands biscuits—just be sure to thaw them completely before using.
  • For a fun twist, try making individual mini pizza bakes using a muffin tin instead of a large baking dish.
