Ingredients
- 16 ounce can refrigerated biscuit dough I use Pillsbury Grands Butter Tastin Flaky Layers, 8 count
- 1 ½ cups pizza sauce (or marinara sauce)
- 2 cups shredded Mozzarella cheese or more if desired, to taste
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 20 pepperoni slices approximately, or as desired
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F and spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or grease the pan. Tip - I recommend using a porcelain or glass baking dish intended for casseroles rather than a metal pan (which will cause the dough to cook faster which can increase the chances for burning).
- Open the can of biscuit dough (pop!), separate the biscuits, and cut each of the biscuits into 8 pieces. So you'll have approximately 64 pieces of dough. Scatter them evenly in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Tip - I find it easier to use a kitchen scissors than a knife to cut the biscuits but it's up to you.
- Evenly pour the pizza or marinara sauce over the dough.
- Evenly scatter the shredded cheese, sprinkle with Italian seasoning, and add the pepperoni.
- Bake for about 30-40 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through in the center. Tip - If the top of the bubble up is browning too quickly after about 20 minutes but you suspect the biscuits aren't close to being fully cooked, cover the baking dish with a sheet of foil for the remainder of the cooking time. Serve warm and fresh.

Notes
- Storage: Leftovers will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days noting that this is one of those recipes that's at its peak when it's warm and freshly made. While I haven't frozen leftovers, I'm sure you could for up to 3 months. Reheat leftovers very gently in the microwave.
