Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 pound ground Italian sausage
- 0.5 cup chopped onion
- 0.5 cup sliced pepperoni
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.25 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1 cup milk
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 0.5 cup pizza sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 as needed cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray.
In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook the ground Italian sausage and chopped onion until the sausage is browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat and set aside to cool slightly.
Spread the cooked sausage mixture evenly across the bottom of the greased pie dish. Arrange the sliced pepperoni on top of the sausage.
In a small bowl, mix together the shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. Sprinkle half of the cheese mixture over the sausage and pepperoni in the pie dish.
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, dried Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Gradually add the milk and eggs, whisking until a smooth batter forms.
Pour the batter evenly over the sausage and pepperoni mixture in the pie dish. Gently shake the dish to help the batter spread evenly.
Drizzle the pizza sauce over the top of the batter and use a spatula or knife to lightly swirl it into the surface.
Top with the remaining cheese mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
Allow the pizza pie to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your Impossibly Easy Pizza Pie!
