French Bread Pizza

Ingredients

  • 1 (12 ounce) loaf French bread
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup pizza sauce, or to taste
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, or more to taste
  • pizza toppings, such as pepperoni, Italian sausage, red onion, olives, mushrooms, bell peppers, jalapenos, ham, bacon, or tomatoes
  • red pepper flakes or chopped basil, for garnish

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup, and set aside.

  2. Using a serrated knife, cut the French bread in half, and then slice in half lengthwise to make 4 pizzas. Lightly brush the cut sides of the bread with olive oil and place on the baking sheet.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven for 4 minutes.

  4. Remove from the oven; spread pizza sauce over each piece of bread, and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Finish by adding your favorite toppings, pressing in slightly to adhere.

  5. Return to the oven and bake until cheese is melted and starting to brown, 10 to 13 minutes. Serve immediately.
