How To Make tender & tasty pizza biscuits - cassie

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 375 degree F. I then lined a baking sheet with parchment paper, you could also just spray a sheet with non stick cooking spray. In a large bowl, I mix the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, basil, oregano, garlic powder and salt.
  • Step 2
    I then add this to my food processor. Add the butter and pulse till forms crumbs. ( Can cut in the butter with knives or pasty blender as well, just easier with food processor.) I then pour back into bowl.
  • Step 3
    Stir in the onion, pepperoni and cheese.
  • Step 4
    In a small bowl, whisk the eggs with the milk. Stir this into the dry mixture, until well blended.
  • Step 5
    Turn out onto a well floured surface and knead 5 - 6 times.
  • Step 6
    Cut in half and with floured fingers, pat each half into a circle about 1 inch thick. You could cut into triangles or I use my biscuit cutter. I also used the scraps and shaped with my fingers.
  • Step 7
    Place on prepared baking pan, about 1 inch apart. I then used a pastry brush and brushed each biscuit with buttermilk, then sprinkled with more Parmesan. Bake for 20 - 25 minutes or until golden. If you make them smaller, adjust baking time. Serve immediately. My kids like dipping them in pizza sauce. Enjoy!
  • Step 8
    They heat up nicely in microwave.
