These mini pizzas are a delightful twist on a classic, combining savory sausage, melted mozzarella, and a hint of fresh herbs on a biscuit crust.
Preheat your oven to the temperature indicated on the biscuit package.
Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even baking.
Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Flatten each biscuit to about 6 inches in diameter.
Use your fingers or a rolling pin to flatten the biscuits evenly.
Bake the biscuits according to the package instructions or until lightly golden.
Keep an eye on the biscuits to prevent over-browning.
Heat olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it into small pieces.
Cook the sausage thoroughly until no pink remains.
Add the chopped onion to the pan and sauté until the onion is soft and translucent.
Stir frequently to prevent the onion from burning.
Stir in the fresh basil and remove the pan from heat.
Adding basil at the end preserves its fresh flavor.
Spread a spoonful of tomato sauce onto each baked biscuit.
Use as much or as little sauce as you prefer.
Divide the sausage mixture evenly among the biscuits.
Ensure each biscuit gets a generous amount of topping.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the top of each biscuit.
Cover the toppings completely with cheese for a gooey finish.
Return the biscuits to the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Check frequently to avoid burning the cheese.
Serve the mini pizzas warm and enjoy!
Garnish with extra basil leaves for a fresh touch.
