Faster than a speeding pizza dude… have biscuit deep dish pizza tonight.
Pizza…we all love it but making it at home is more work than many want to try (it really isn’t THAT hard… ). So a biscuit based crust is a good substitute. It’s quick, easy and tasty.
I started with a basic biscuit recipe. I added butter in the dough under the dough and on top of the dough.. it is not health food you know.

This is a great substitute for a yeast based dough when you’re in a hurry. A high 3 or low 4.
Notes: Top anyway you want. Do it Chicago style with the cheese on the bottom. Load it with veggies, chicken or anything you want. As always, do NOT use raw meat.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees convection.
Start with 4 tablespoons butter and microwave until melted. About 20 seconds.
Combine 2 cups flour, 1 tablespoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt. Add 1/2 of the melted butter and 1 cup milk. Mix until combined. Do not over mix.
Bush a 9 inch round pan with the melted butter.
Pat the dough into the pan. Brush with butter and pat the dough more and up the side of the pan some.
Fill with toppings of choice. I just did pepperoni. You need about 1/4 cup of sauce and 1 cup of mozzarella cheese.
Bake until golden brown. 18-20 minutes.
