Ingredients

  • 1(12 ounce) loafFrench bread
  • 2tablespoonsolive oil
  • 1cuppizza sauce, or to taste
  • 2cupsshredded mozzarella cheese, or more to taste
  • pepperoni, Italian sausage, red onion, olives, mushrooms, bell peppers, jalapenos, ham, bacon, or tomatoes
  • red pepper flakes or chopped basil, for garnish

  • Directions

    Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup, and set aside.

    Using a serrated knife, cut the French bread in half, and then slice in half lengthwise to make 4 pizzas. Lightly brush the cut sides of the bread with olive oil and place on the baking sheet.

    Bake in the preheated oven for 4 minutes.

    Remove from the oven; spread pizza sauce over each piece of bread, and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Finish by adding your favorite toppings, pressing in slightly to adhere.

    Return to the oven and bake until cheese is melted and starting to brown, 10 to 13 minutes. Serve immediately.



    Cook’s Note

    As an option, brush the bread with garlic butter instead of olive oil. Pre-baking the French bread helps prevent sogginess from the sauce.
