  1. Preheat your oven to 400F and move the rack to the top third of the oven.
  2. Cut the bread in half horizontally (do this as evenly as possible), place it on a baking sheet, and spread the butter over the cut side of each half.
  3. Bake for 5-6 minutes, then take it out of the oven.
  4. Spread each half with the pizza sauce, and then top with the cheese and then the toppings (pepperoni, pepperoncini peppers, and olives).
  5. Bake for 12 minutes and then broil for a couple minutes until hot and bubbly (watch it carefully so it doesn't burn).
  6. Slice into desired size pieces, and enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • Top pizza as desired/to taste - this is a very flexible recipe and you can add more/less of an ingredient than suggested.
