This Spicy White Pizza is the ultimate comfort food hack, using a quick biscuit dough base to create a flaky, savory crust that rivals traditional dough. The “white” sauce profile skips the tomato, allowing the robust flavors of roasted garlic, fresh oregano, and basil to shine through. A generous drizzle of olive oil infuses the crust with aroma, while a blend of melted mozzarella and sharp Parmesan creates a rich, creamy topping. The addition of crushed red pepper flakes adds a perfect kick of heat that balances the mild cheese. It’s an ideal weeknight dinner or casual party appetizer that comes together in under an hour. Simple, delicious, and incredibly satisfying, this recipe proves you donâÂÂt need complex techniques to enjoy restaurant-quality pizza at home.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350ðF (175ðC).
  2. Lightly grease a 12-inch pizza pan or a 13x9-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
  3. Separate the biscuit dough into 10 individual biscuits.
  4. Gently separate each biscuit into two layers to create 20 thin rounds.
  5. Arrange the biscuit layers in the prepared pan, pressing them together to cover the bottom and slightly up the sides to form a single crust layer.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, minced garlic, oregano, basil, and crushed red pepper flakes.
  7. Drizzle the garlic-oil mixture evenly over the biscuit crust.
  8. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the crust.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 22 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
  10. Let cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Note

For a crispier crust, bake on a preheated pizza stone or invert a baking sheet in the oven while preheating.

You can add cooked Italian sausage, pepperoni, or sautéed mushrooms for a heartier meal.

If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce or omit the red pepper flakes.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350ðF for 10 minutes to restore crispiness.
