How To Make deep dish pizza cups

Step 1

Open the Pillsbury Simply French Bread and gently unroll it until flat. Cut into 8 even squares.

Step 2

Press the squares of bread dough into each of 8 muffin tins, which have been lightly sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
Step 3

In a small bowl, stir together the crushed tomatoes or the Muir Glen crushed tomatoes, garlic powder, onion salt, chili powder, and Italian Seasoning. Spoon evenly into each of the dough cups.
Step 4

Sprinkle the sausage crumbles and bacon bits over the sauce in each cup. Top with cheese. Add a single pepperoni slice on top.
Step 5

Bake in an oven preheated to 400 degrees for 15-18 minutes, or until the edges of the bread cups are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
Step 6

Eat and enjoy!
