# Expert Hints:

01 -
  • Everything you love about pizza in a cozy, spoonable comfort food format
  • Ready in about 50 minutes with zero fancy techniques or skills required
  • Endlessly customizable based on whatever toppings your family actually agrees on
02 -
  • Room temperature biscuit dough will get sticky and frustrating to cut into neat pieces
  • Letting it rest before serving is the difference between a cohesive casserole and a sloppy mess on plates
  • The biscuits will continue absorbing sauce while they rest, so dont panic if it looks saucy right out of the oven
03 -
  • Use kitchen shears to snip the pepperoni into smaller pieces for better distribution

  • Position your oven rack in the upper third to get that perfect cheesy golden crust on top
