[large_title title=”How To: Make the Dough”]
Step 1
Take the Pillsbury flaky biscuits and combine them together to make one big dough. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and roll out the biscuit dough. Once the dough has been laid out as much as possible, bake it in the oven for 10 minutes. Tip: We recommend using a rolling pan to get the dough as flat as possible.
[large_title title=”How To: Make the Sauce”]
Step 1
Pour olive oil in a pot on medium heat. Put in diced onions and let them cook until they are translucent.
Step 2
Next add minced garlic. Stir frequently. Reduce to low heat. Onions and garlic should be nice and golden.
Step 3
It is time to add the crushed tomatoes and basil.
Step 4
Following the basil, add the spice blend and stir it all together. Let the sauce simmer for at least 15 minutes on low heat. Once all the flavors have infused and sauce thickened, simply take the sauce of the stove and set it aside.
Sauteeded Mushrooms
Melt a tablespoon of butter on medium heat and add the sliced mushrooms. Stir the mushrooms frequently so they don’t burn. When done place them aside.
[large_title title=”How To: Assemble the Pizza”]
Step 1
Spread the tomato sauce all over the biscuit crust. Make sure not to over sauce as this can make the crust soggy.
Step 2
Sprinkle cheese all over the top (amount depends on preference).
Step 3
Next add mushrooms and fresh basil.
For the final step, sprinkle salt and pepper. Next bake the pizza at 350 F for 10-15 minutes or until cheese is melted and crust nice and golden.
