How to Make Biscuit Pizzas
- Bake the biscuits
Pop the refrigerated biscuit dough into the oven and bake them according to the package instructions. Pull them out and cool for a few minutes when they’re done. Put the pan you cooked them in aside, as you will be using it again later. Leave the oven on as you will be using it again in a few minutes.

- Prep your toppings
Cut open the biscuits and spread marinara or pizza sauce over the bottom half. My daughter loved helping with this step.

Grab your shredded cheese and toppings (if using) and get them ready to layer.

- Layer it up
Add the shredded mozzarella on top of the sauce. You can also sprinkle on any extra toppings. Cover with the top half of the biscuit.

- Melt in the oven
Place the assembled biscuits back on the baking sheet, cover them with foil, and bake for a few more minutes. The goal is to melt the cheese without overcooking the biscuit.

- Enjoy warm
Remove the biscuits from the oven and serve warm for that perfect mix of cheesy goodness and flaky crust.
Who doesn't love cheesy goodness? These go great with bowl of tomato soup on a chilly day. You can even dip your biscuit in your soup. Not that I've ever done that.

Tips for Making Pizza Biscuits
Tip 1: Use parchment paper on your baking sheet for easier cleanup.
Tip 2: Don’t put too much sauce on the biscuits or they will get soggy.
Tip 3: For extra crispy biscuits, toast them slightly before adding toppings.
FAQs For Pizza Biscuit Recipe
If you have any leftover pizza biscuits (which doesn't happen often here!), just pop them in an airtight container and stick them in the fridge. They'll stay fresh for 2-3 days. When you want to reheat them, I usually use the microwave for about 20 seconds or put them back in the oven for a few minutes to get them nice and warm again.
This is one of my favorite things about this recipe. You can totally switch it up! I’ve tried adding pepperoni, cooked sausage, or even some veggies like diced peppers and mushrooms.
Absolutely! If you have a good biscuit recipe you like, go for it. Sometimes I use my own if I’m feeling a little extra. Just follow the same instructions and you’ll still get yummy, cheesy pizza biscuits.
