Ingredients
- 1 whole French bread loaf
- 1 cup Marinara or pizza sauce
- 2 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 30 pieces Pepperoni slices
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried basil
- 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Step 2
Slice the French bread loaf lengthwise into two equal halves and place them cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 3
Brush the cut sides of the bread with olive oil to help them crisp up in the oven.
Step 4
In a small bowl, mix the dried oregano, dried basil, and garlic powder, then sprinkle the mixture evenly over the oiled bread.
Step 5
Spread an even layer of marinara or pizza sauce over each bread half, about 1/2 cup per side.
Step 6
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce, using about 1 cup per bread half.
Step 7
Top the cheese with pepperoni slices, distributing them evenly across both halves (approximately 15 slices per half).
Step 8
Sprinkle a bit of grated Parmesan cheese over the top for added flavor.
Step 9
Bake the French bread pizzas in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges of the bread are golden and crisp.
Step 10
Remove the pizzas from the oven, let them cool slightly, then slice each half into smaller pieces for serving. Enjoy your Pepperoni French Bread Pizza!
