how to make Bubble Up Biscuit Pizza Casserole

Ingredients :

2 cans refrigerated buttermilk biscuits (*See Notes)
1 (15oz) jar pizza sauce
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Pizza toppings of choice (We love pepperoni & Italian sausage)

Directions :

Preheat the oven to 350° F and grease a 9×13 baking dish.
Open up both cans of biscuits and cut them into quarters or small bite-sized pieces using a pizza cutter or knife.
Evenly place the dough onto the bottom of your prepared dish. Try to arrange them in a single layer, stacking any that need to be near the edges of the pan where they will bake the fastest.
Use a spoon or small spatula to spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough. Then sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese and your choice of pizza toppings on top.
Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes or until the dough is cooked through, and the cheese starts to brown. The center takes the longest to cook, so check there first for doneness.
Allow the casserole to cool for at least 5 minutes before enjoying!
