→ For the Pizza
01 -
8 slices of Texas Toast Garlic Bread
02 -
1 cup pizza sauce
03 -
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
04 -
1/2 cup sliced pepperoni (optional)
05 -
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
06 -
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
07 -
Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)
# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat your oven according to the Texas toast package instructions, typically around 425°F (220°C).
02 -
Arrange Texas toast slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake according to package directions until lightly toasted, about 5 minutes. This prevents the bread from becoming soggy later.
03 -
Remove toast from oven and spread 1-2 tablespoons of pizza sauce on each slice, leaving a small border around the edges to create a crust-like appearance.
04 -
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella evenly over each slice. Add pepperoni or other desired toppings. Season with Italian seasoning and red pepper flakes if using.
05 -
Return to the oven and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly, and edges are golden brown and crispy.
06 -
Add fresh basil leaves if desired, and serve immediately while hot and crispy.
