French Bread Pizza

Prep Time 15 min
Cook Time 15 min
Yield 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 loaf French bread
  • 1-1/2 cups marinara or pizza sauce
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Pepperoni
  • Grated Parmesan cheese
  • Olive oil drizzle
  • Hot honey
  • Minced fresh basil

Directions

  1. Slice the French bread vertically in half (down the middle to make two sides). Then slice horizontally to create a top and bottom. Take your prepared sauce and spread evenly onto the open side of the bread. Take your cheese and spread evenly on top of the sauce.
  2. Top with whichever toppings you like. I kept it nostalgic with classic pepperoni and cheese.
  3. Bake at 375° for 10-12 minutes. Then for 2-3 minutes, broil it to get some color on the cheese (keep a watchful eye).
  4. Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving!
