What is Easy Sheet Pan Pizza?
Easy Sheet Pan Pizza is the ultimate crowd-pleaser! It’s perfect for those nights when you crave a delicious, homemade pizza without all the fuss. We make it easy by taking a risen fluffy dough and topping it with a generous drizzle of rich, fragrant olive oil, a sprinkle of aromatic dried oregano, and a dash of salt to set the stage.
Then, we add flavorful marinara sauce and scatter colorful veggies and tangy Kalamata olives over the top. The vibrant medley of veggies is as much a feast for your eyes as it is for your taste buds! Finally, we blanket the whole creation with a generous handful (or several!) of shredded mozzarella cheese, ready to melt into gooey, bubbly perfection.
Ingredients You Need
- Frozen Dinner Rolls – Using frozen dinner rolls simplifies the process of making the dough, saving so much time while also providing a consistent yet super easy base for the pizza.
- Olive Oil – Drizzling olive oil over the dough ensures a rich, flavorful crust that crisps up beautifully during baking.
- Dried Oregano – A sprinkle of dried oregano adds that essential herbaceous flavor that enhances the overall taste of the pizza.
- Salt – A dash of salt is super crucial for balancing flavors and bringing out the best in all of the other ingredients.
- Marinara Sauce – Spreading marinara sauce evenly over the dough forms the flavorful base layer, infusing the pizza with rich tomato goodness.
- Red Onion – Sliced red onion adds a subtle sweetness and a bit of crunch, contributing to both the texture and flavor profile.
- Green Pepper – Green pepper slices provide a fresh and slightly bitter, yet pleasant, flavor that complements the rest of the ingredients.
- Red Pepper – Sliced red pepper brings a hint of sweetness and vibrant color to the pizza.
- Yellow Pepper – Yellow pepper slices add a mild, sweet flavor and a pop of bright color, making the presentation of the pizza even prettier.
- Kalamata Olives – Kalamata olives offer a briny, tangy flavor that adds depth and complexity to the pizza.
- Shredded Mozzarella Cheese – Shredded mozzarella is a classic on pizza — it melts beautifully, creating a gooey, bubbly topping that holds all the ingredients together.
How to Make Easy Sheet Pan Pizza
- Prepare rolls. Place all of the frozen dinner rolls on a prepared large sheet pan and let them rise per the instructions on the package. Then, press the down down and top with olive oil, oregano, and salt.
- Add toppings. Pour the marinara sauce over the dough evenly before adding the veggies and olives and sprinkling the cheese over the top.
- Bake. Put the pan in the oven and bake until the cheese is browned and bubbly and the crust has reached a gorgeous golden brown color.
Variations
- Pepperoni – Adding pepperoni gives the pizza a classic, savory flavor with a bit of spice, making the pizza even more satisfying and hearty.
- Mushrooms – Including mushrooms adds an earthy, umami flavor that pairs well with the other toppings.
- Spinach – Fresh spinach brings a burst of color to the table as well as a boost of nutrients.
- Feta Cheese – Crumbled feta cheese — one of our faves — adds a tangy, salty element that adds a unique twist.
- Pineapple – Yes, we know it’s controversial — don’t come for us! But, pineapple chunks can add a sweet, juicy contrast to the savory toppings, if you’re into fruit on your pizza.
- Bacon – Crispy bacon bits bring a rich, smoky flavor to the pizza.
- Artichoke Hearts – Adding artichoke hearts provides a tender, slightly tangy flavor that adds a bit more complexity to the pizza.
- Pesto Sauce – Swapping out marinara for pesto sauce gives the pizza a fresh, herbaceous flavor with a creamy texture that’s a fun twist on standard tomato sauce. If you want, you can still use the tomato sauce but add a few dollops of pesto on top.
- Buffalo Chicken – Adding shredded buffalo chicken introduces a spicy, tangy element that is perfect for pizza lovers who want a bit of heat.
- Sun-Dried Tomatoes – Sun-dried tomatoes offer a concentrated, sweet-tart flavor when you sprinkle them on as a topping.
Can I Store Leftovers?
You sure can store this easy pizza! But it can get soggy, so make sure to reheat it in an air-fryer or oven to eliminate some of the moisture that may seep into the crust.
Sheet pan pizza can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. To keep it fresh, place the leftovers in an airtight container or wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil.
For longer storage, you can freeze the pizza for up to 2 months. Make sure to wrap each piece individually in plastic wrap and then place them in a freezer-safe bag or container to prevent freezer burn.
