HOW TO MAKE PAN BREAD PIZZA

Pan bread pizza is a simplified version of our classic round pizza. Instead of making a pizza dough from scratch, we will make use on the readily available slices of loaf bread as the pizza base. The rest of the ingredients will be upon your choice. If you might notice, I didn’t put any quantity on the ingredients list for you to explore and make your pizza how you like it.

Let this recipe be a simple guide if you want to make a ham and cheese pan bread pizza today.

Toast your bread. You can do it by greasing you pan and let it cook until brown sides appear. Alternatively, you can use a bread toaster or oven toaster if available. Lay your toasted bread in a flat surface and start adding the toppings. Start with spreading a nice amount of pizza sauce. You can use tomato sauce of ketchup for a less sour pizza sauce. The rest of the steps will involve decorating the pizza. Add the toppings one by one until you form a nice but overloaded pizza. Make sure to chop the ingredients small to fit the slice of bread. In this recipe, I used mozzarella cheese for that ooey gooey action. This cheese is a bit pricey so if you’re on a budget, you can use any quick melt cheese or regular cheese.

Pan-bake the pizza by placing it in a preheated pan and cover. When the mozzarella cheese melts, the pizza is done. Slice it into two triangles for some authentic pizza vibes. Add some hot sauce if you like it spicy. Enjoy!
