Print Recipe
- Biscuit
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup cold butter cut into small pieces
- 3/4 cup milk
- Pizza Toppings
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 3/4 cup spaghetti sauce
- mini pepperoni
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
In a medium bowl combine flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Cut in cold butter with a pastry blender or by criss-crossing 2 knives, until mixture looks like fine crumbs. Stir in milk (dough should be soft).
Place dough on a work surface and divide into 12 equal portions. Pat each portion up the sides of a muffin tin working it in an even layer.
Fill each muffin cup with 1 tablespoon of spaghetti sauce. Evenly distribute the mozzarella cheese and top with mini pepperonis. Bake for 15 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and biscuit is golden.
Storing and Reheating:
Store them in an airtight container in your refrigerator for about 3-4 days. To reheat, put them in the oven at 350 for about 5 minutes. You can also use the microwave in 30 second intervals, but keep in mind that the microwave may make them a little bit mushier than you'd like.
