Ingredients
Scale
Crust Ingredients
- 1 (11.36-oz) package Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix
- Seasoning packet included in the biscuit mix
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ¾ cup water
Toppings
- 1 cup pizza sauce
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- Favorite pizza toppings (e.g., pepperoni, bell peppers, mushrooms, olives, etc.)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425ºF (218ºC) and spray a 15×10-inch rimmed baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Make the Biscuit Dough: In a large bowl, combine the Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix with the seasoning packet, ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese, and ¾ cup water. Mix until a dough forms.
- Press the Dough: Evenly press the biscuit dough into the prepared baking sheet, forming the pizza crust base with a uniform thickness.
- Partially Bake the Crust: Bake the biscuit crust in the preheated oven for 8 minutes to set and start browning.
- Add Sauce and Toppings: Remove the crust from the oven and spread 1 cup of pizza sauce evenly over the surface. Sprinkle 2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese, and add your favorite pizza toppings on top.
- Bake the Pizza: Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8 to 10 minutes until the crust turns golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Notes
- Using the biscuit mix as a crust gives a unique cheesy, buttery flavor different from traditional pizza dough.
- Make sure to partially bake the crust first to avoid a soggy bottom after adding sauce and toppings.
- Feel free to customize toppings to suit your taste; vegetables, meats, or a combination work well.
- Allow the pizza to cool slightly before slicing for cleaner cuts.
- This recipe yields a thinner, biscuit-style pizza crust rather than a traditional dough consistency.
