Ingredients
Instructions
- Leave biscuits out at room temperature while browning the hamburger meat.
- Brown the hamburger meat in a skillet, then drain the grease.
- Add barbecue sauce or pizza sauce to the cooked meat and mix well.
- Separate the biscuits and place them on a baking sheet.
- Top each biscuit with the cooked meat mixture and a quarter slice of American cheese.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 15 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown and cheese is melted.
Tips & Substitutions
For a twist, try adding sautéed vegetables like bell peppers or onions to the meat mixture. You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for the hamburger for a lighter option. If you’re low on American cheese, mix in some mozzarella or cheddar. Ensure the biscuits are spaced well on the baking sheet for even cooking, similar to how you would prepare Ham Potato Patties.
Serving Suggestions
Serve Biscuit Pizzas as a fun appetizer or quick meal for kids and adults alike. They pair wonderfully with a side salad or veggie sticks for a balanced meal. You can also explore more American recipes that complement these bites, like Easy Baked Beans for a hearty spread at gatherings.

Store any leftover Biscuit Pizzas in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes or until heated through, ensuring the biscuits stay crispy and the cheese melts perfectly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use other types of cheese for this recipe?
Absolutely! While American cheese melts nicely, you can use mozzarella for a classic pizza flavor, or cheddar for a sharper taste. Mixing different cheeses can also enhance the flavor profile, so feel free to experiment with your favorites.

Barbecue sauce is a delicious alternative that adds a smoky flavor to your Biscuit Pizzas. You can also use homemade tomato sauce or even a pesto for a unique twist. Just ensure the sauce complements the other ingredients you choose to use.
