Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 loaf French bread
  • 2 bulbs garlic
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 cup butter softened and unsalted
  • Kosher salt to taste
  • 1 cup pizza sauce or marinara sauce
  • 16 oz fresh mozzarella cheese sliced
  • 1/2 cup pepperoni slices
  • 1/2 cup sliced bell peppers
  • Grated Parmesan cheese
  • Crushed red pepper flakes
  • Fresh basil leaves

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Slice off tops of garlic bulbs, drizzle with oil, wrap in foil. Roast 45-60 mins until caramelized. Cool and squeeze out cloves.
  • Raise oven heat to 400°F. In a bowl, mash roasted garlic cloves into the softened butter. Season with salt.
  • Slice bread loaf lengthwise into 8 pieces. Arrange slices on baking sheet and spread butter mixture evenly.
  • Bake 8-10 minutes until crispy and golden brown.
  • Remove bread and top with sauce and desired toppings. Bake 12-15 minutes more until hot and melty.
  • Finish with Parmesan, red pepper flakes, and basil. Slice and serve.

Notes

  • Pre-toasting the Garlic Bread: For an extra crispy base, consider lightly toasting the garlic bread before adding the toppings. This step helps prevent the bread from becoming soggy.
  • Evenly Distributed Toppings: To ensure each bite is as flavorful as the last, distribute your toppings evenly across the garlic bread.
  • Watch the Oven: Garlic bread can go from perfectly toasted to burnt in a short time, so keep an eye on your pizza as it bakes to ensure it doesn’t overcook.
  • Fresh is Best: Whenever possible, use fresh ingredients for your toppings and cheese. Fresh mozzarella and vegetables can make a significant difference in flavor.
  • Experiment with Flavors: Don’t be afraid to experiment with different types of garlic bread or toppings. Adding a sprinkle of chili flakes, fresh basil, or a drizzle of balsamic glaze can elevate the dish to new heights.

Garlic Bread Pizza combines the best of two worlds, offering a unique and delicious option for anyone looking to spice up their mealtime. With its easy preparation and crowd-pleasing potential, it’s a recipe that invites creativity and guarantees satisfaction.
