5-Minute Pizza Bread:The Quick and Easy Solution to Your Pizza Cravings

With just a few ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a delicious homemade pizza bread ready in just 5 minutes! This recipe is perfect for busy weeknights, when you want something tasty but don’t have a lot of time to spend in the kitchen.

Ingredients

To make this tasty pizza bread, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • 2 slices of Sourdough bread
  • 1/4 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/8 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup of Sweet Basil Pasta Sauce (any store brand is fine)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Place the slices of sourdough bread onto a cookie sheet.
  3. Add half of the 1/8 cup of sauce to each slice and spread it lightly with a spoon.
  4. Mix the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese together and sprinkle it evenly on top of the sauce.
  5. Place the cookie sheet into the preheated oven and bake for 5 minutes, or until the top is turning slightly golden.
  6. Remove the pizza bread from the oven and let it cool for a minute.
  7. Slice and enjoy!

Tips and Tricks

  • Use good quality ingredients to make this pizza bread even tastier. Look for a high-quality sourdough bread and use fresh mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
  • If you like a little bit of spice, add some crushed red pepper flakes to the cheese mixture before sprinkling it on top of the sauce. We also like to add a piece of pepper jack for some kick (as in the photo)
  • Experiment with different types of sauces and toppings to create your own unique pizza bread. Try using pesto instead of tomato sauce, or add some sliced olives or mushrooms on top of the cheese.

If you’re short on time (like I often am)

You can also make this pizza bread in the toaster oven. Simply assemble the pizza bread as instructed and place it into the toaster oven on the “toast” setting.

This 5-minute pizza bread is a favorite in my house especially on busy weeknights when I’m just craving something tasty and am short on time.
