Easy Mini Pizza Recipe

tsp salt

pizza sauce

(optional)

Preheat the oven to 425° Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with cooking oil.

Spread the pizza dough onto a floured surface and cut into circles with a cookie cutter or rim of a cup. You will have about 12 little pizza dough circles. Place the dough circles onto the baking sheet.

Optional: Melt the butter and mix in parsley, salt, and garlic powder. Brush the pizza dough circles with the butter sauce.

Spread 1-2 teaspoons of pizza sauce onto the dough. Sprinkle with 1-2 tablespoons of mozzarella cheese. Add your toppings of choice.

Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the cheese begins to bubble and is golden brown. Let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Mini Pizzas are made with canned biscuits, pizza, sauce, pepperoni, cheese, and spices and ready in less than 20 minutes! They’re baked in a muffin tin, and since they’re individually made, everyone in the family can top their own!

Cut each of the biscuits in half and gently press each half into a cavity of the tin, pinching the dough together to make a circle.

Add 1 teaspoon of pizza sauce to each of the doughs and gently spread around.

Add a pinch of pizza seasoning or dried oregano to each pizza.

Top the sauce with 1 tablespoon of shredded cheese on each pizza.

Add 3 (quartered) pepperoni pieces to each pizza.

Mini Pizza Recipe

water

tbsp active, dry yeast

tbsp sugar

olive oil

bread flour

salt

basil

Pizza Sauce

mozzarella cheese (shredded) (Monterey Jack, cheddar, crumbled feta

oz pepperoni (sliced)

Place the warm water in a large mixing bowl. Stir in the sugar and sprinkle the yeast over the top. Allow this to set for five minutes. The mixture will start to foam and bubble.

Add the oil, flour, salt, and herbs. Stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms.

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about five minutes until a smooth dough ball is formed.

Transfer the dough ball to a greased bowl, cover, and allow to rise until doubled in bulk, about an hour.

To make the dough by hand

Combine the dough ingredients in the bread machine pan, according to the order recommended by the manufacturer.

Set on dough and start the machine, checking after ten minutes to make sure all the ingredients have been incorporated and not stuck to the side of the pan. Scrape down any stray ingredients to insure they are mixed in.

To make the dough in a bread machine

Place the warm water in the mixing bowl. Stir in the sugar and sprinkle the yeast over the top. Allow this to set for five minutes. The mixture will start to foam and bubble.

Add the oil, flour, salt, and herbs. Attach the dough hook and run the machine until all the ingredients are incorporated, stopping the machine to scrape the sides as necessary. Knead with the dough hook until a smooth dough ball is formed.

To make the dough in a stand mixer

Preheat the oven to 500 °. Spray baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray and sprinkle with corn meal to prevent sticking or line the pans with parchment paper for easier cleanup.

Divide the dough into 16 portions. Flatten each portion into a thin round and place on the cooking sheet.

Spread sauce and sprinkle toppings as desired.

Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until the crust is crisp and the cheese melted and lightly browned.

Once the dough is ready

Wrap cooled pizzas in foil or plastic wrap and stash in a larger ziptop freezer bag. Thaw and reheat in a 350 oven for about 5 minutes.

To freeze baked pizzas

Assemble the pizzas as directed, but instead of baking, place the trays in the freezer. Once the pizzas are frozen solid (this will take several hours), stack them between layers of patty papers or waxed paper and store in a freezer bag or box in the freezer. To serve: bake from frozen at 450 degrees, for 10 to 12 minutes.

To freeze unbaked pizzas

These were a huge hit! I frozen them completely baked and I had to fight my family to actually have enough to freeze. I throw them in my kid’s lunches and my husband can grab one to reheat for his lunch at home.

Made this twice so far with my toddlers who now enjoy pizza. It’s a quick and easy recipe, and tastes great. My kids are looking forward to many more homemade pizza days/nights. I also love oregano and never thought to add it to the dough until I saw this recipe. I doubt I’ll be buying anymore pizza moving forward. Homemade is the way to go. Thanks for the recipe! :)

I have made these for a while using my go-to slow proof in the fridge dough with garlic powder/herbs.  I make a bunch when I do for the freezer. Before I top, I brush each round with olive oil, prick with a fork and par-bake about 5 minutes at 425F; completely cool on wire racks and then top. Then I Flash freeze until solid and double wrap each in plastic wrap before placing in freezer bags (4 per bag), air removed and stack flat. To bake, I find it bakes better in my oven at 425-450F for about 15 minutes from frozen (less time at 450F).

Made these for my kids' lunch today.  Easy and tasty!  Love the addition of herbs to the dough.  My kids always want lunchables pizza kits, but I rarely buy them for obvious reasons.  Can spend over $10 on them for my 5 kids!  These mini pizzas are great for freezing.  Also, I baked some of the mini crusts untopped: prick it all over with a fork, lowered the temp to 425 for 3 min, flipped them and baked for another 3 minutes.  Now we can make our own pizza kits!

Big hit for lunch today. And my husband is looking forward to having homemade pizza whenever he wants.

These are so tasty! Both of my girls raved about them and want me to make them every time I do pizza instead of the “other” kind I make. I froze the unbaked pizzas, and they were so easy and quick to bake. These will be a staple for our pizza nights! Thanks, Jessica, for another great recipe.
