Bubble Up Pizza Bake (Print Version)

Refrigerated biscuits cut into pieces, tossed in garlic butter and Parmesan, baked, then topped with pizza sauce, Italian sausage, mozzarella, and pepperoni.

# Ingredients:

→ For the Biscuit Base

01 - 1 (16.3 oz) can Pillsbury Homestyle Biscuits (or any brand/type of biscuits you like)
02 - 4 tablespoons salted butter, melted
03 - 5 to 6 cloves garlic, minced
04 - 1 tablespoon dried oregano or Italian seasoning
05 - 1 teaspoon dried parsley
06 - 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

→ For the Toppings

07 - 14 oz pizza sauce
08 - 1 lb Italian sausage
09 - 16 oz shredded mozzarella cheese
10 - 6 oz pepperoni slices
11 - Any other pizza toppings you like

# Instructions:

01 - Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
02 - Cut each biscuit into 9 equal-sized pieces. Set aside.
03 - In a bowl, melt the butter, then add the oregano (or Italian seasoning), parsley, minced garlic, and Parmesan cheese. Toss the biscuit pieces into this mixture until they're all well coated.
04 - Layer the coated biscuit pieces into a 9x13 inch baking dish. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until the biscuits are cooked through and lightly golden.
05 - While the biscuits are baking, brown the Italian sausage in a skillet. Grate the mozzarella cheese if not already shredded, and prepare whatever other pizza toppings you're using.
06 - Take the biscuits out of the oven and spread the pizza sauce over the top. Add the cooked sausage, shredded mozzarella cheese, pepperoni slices, and any other toppings you like.
07 - Bake for another 10 to 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the pepperoni is crispy around the edges.
08 - Serve hot and enjoy this fun pizza casserole! It's like pizza meets cheesy garlic bread.

# Notes:

01 - You can use any type of refrigerated biscuits - flaky layers, homestyle, or even the smaller size.
02 - Customize the toppings just like you would a regular pizza - mushrooms, olives, bell peppers, onions, whatever you like!
03 - The garlic butter mixture on the biscuits gives them amazing flavor - like pizza crust and garlic bread combined.
04 - Make sure to cook the sausage completely before adding it to the casserole.
05 - This is super kid-friendly and fun for family pizza night!
06 - Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven for best results.
