Ingredients
8 slices of Texas Toast Garlic Bread
1 cup pizza sauce
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup sliced pepperoni (optional, or substitute with your preferred toppings like cooked sausage, mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, etc.)
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional for added heat)
Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven according to the garlic Texas toast package instructions. Typically, this will be around 425°F (220°C). Arrange the Texas toast slices in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Bake the Texas Toast according to the package instructions until lightly toasted, usually about 5 minutes. This pre-toasting helps to ensure the bread doesn’t become too soggy once topped with sauce and cheese.
Remove the toast from the oven and carefully spread a tablespoon or two of pizza sauce on each slice, leaving a small border around the edges to mimic a pizza crust.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce on each slice of toast. Then, add your chosen toppings like pepperoni, vegetables, or any other preferred pizza toppings.
Season the pizzas with Italian seasoning and red pepper flakes (if using) for an extra flavor boost.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the toast are crispy and golden brown.
Garnish the pizzas with fresh basil leaves if desired, for a fresh, aromatic finish.
Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your quick, crispy, and utterly delicious Texas Toast Garlic Bread Pizzas!
