Garlic Toast Pizzas

by

Crispy, cheesy, and ready in 15 minutes – the ultimate lazy-night dinner or snack!

Ingredients (for 4 pizzas):

  • 4 slices thick crusty bread (like sourdough or ciabatta)
  • ¼ cup garlic butter (or 2 tbsp melted butter + 2 minced garlic cloves)
  • ½ cup pizza sauce
  • 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella
  • Toppings of choice:
  • Pepperoni slices
  • Sautéed mushrooms
  • Fresh basil
  • Red pepper flakes

Optional Drizzle:

  • 1 tbsp hot honey (or olive oil + crushed garlic)

Instructions:

1. Toast the Bread

  1. Spread garlic butter on both sides of each bread slice.
  2. Toast in a skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes per side until golden.

2. Add Toppings

  1. Spread pizza sauce on each slice.
  2. Top with cheese and other toppings.

3. Melt & Crisp

Broil in the oven for 2-3 minutes (or microwave for 30 sec if you’re impatient!) until cheese bubbles.

4. Finish & Serve

Drizzle with hot honey or more garlic butter. Slice and devour!

Tips:

🔥 Extra crunch? Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 5-8 mins instead of broiling.
🍕 No pizza sauce? Use pesto or even ketchup + oregano in a pinch.
🌱 Vegan swap: Use dairy-free cheese and olive oil.

Kid-friendly hack: Let everyone build their own! 😍

Want a fancy twist? Top with arugula + balsamic glaze after baking!
