  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Spread pizza sauce over dough, leaving 1/2-inch border around edges.

  5. 5

    Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over sauce.

  6. 6

    Scatter chosen toppings over cheese, being careful not to overload.

  7. 7

    Bake for 12-15 minutes until croissant dough is golden brown and cheese is melted and bubbly.

  8. 8

    Remove from oven and let cool on baking sheet for 2-3 minutes before slicing.

  9. 9

    Slice into squares or triangles and serve warm.
