Instructions
Before starting with assembly, preheat your oven to 350 degrees and cook the sausage.
To make these pizza cups, put the raw biscuit dough into each muffin tin and press the dough around the sides to form a cup shape.
Then, after slicing and dicing the toppings, add them to the biscuit cup and bake at 350 degrees for 13-17 minutes until the crust is golden brown.
Hint: To remove the pizza cups easier, spray the muffin tins with oil before adding the biscuit dough.
Variations
There are so many tasty options to make your supreme pizza cups unique or to your liking. Remember, you can omit or add whatever your heart desires. Below are some other ideas for you to switch things up.
- Vegetarian – skip the meat, add mushrooms, and go heavier on the olives and bell peppers.
- Spicy – choose spicy sausage or pepperoni, sprinkle with red pepper flakes, or add jalapenos.
- Meat Lovers – a personal favorite, add more meat toppings like bacon, ground beef, ham, or Canadian bacon.
Storage + Reheating
Supreme pizza cups keep well in the fridge for up to 4 days when kept in a storage bag or container.
They can last up to 2 months in the freezer when stored properly. So, you can make many of them in advance and reheat them as needed. Just make sure they are cool before storing.
Reheat in the oven at 350 degrees for 12 to 15 minutes until the cheese is gooey.
