Ingredients

•  sheet of puff pastry (thawed)

   

• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

   

• 1/2 cup pizza sauce

   

• 1/2 cup assorted toppings (pepperoni, vegetables, etc.)

   

• 1 egg (beaten, for egg wash)

• Fresh basil (for garnish, optional)

Directions

• Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

   

• Prepare the Pastry: Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to fit the baking sheet. Transfer it to the prepared baking sheet, trimming any excess edges.

  

• Add Toppings: Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the pastry, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top and add your desired toppings.

   

• Brush and Bake: Brush the edges of the pastry with the beaten egg for a golden finish. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.

  

• Serve: Remove from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, then slice into squares and garnish with fresh basil if desired. Serve warm.
