Description

Quick and delicious Texas toast pizza topped with gooey cheese and your favorite toppings, ready in under 15 minutes.


Ingredients

  • 4 slices Texas toast
  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce
  • 1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese (about 6 oz / 170 g)
  • 12–16 pepperoni slices or desired toppings
  • Garlic butter (about 1–2 tsp per slice)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C) and line a baking sheet with foil or parchment.
  2. Spread a thin layer of garlic butter on each slice of Texas toast.
  3. Top each slice with pizza sauce (about 2 tbsp) and shredded mozzarella cheese.
  4. Add desired toppings like pepperoni slices or veggies.
  5. Bake on the middle rack for 6–8 minutes until cheese is melted and edges are browned.
  6. Broil on high for 1–2 minutes for a golden top — watch carefully.

Notes

For extra crispiness, brush a thin layer of oil under the toast and consider using a pizza stone for a crisper bottom.
