Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish lightly with cooking spray or oil.
In a large skillet, cook the ground Italian sausage over medium heat until browned and fully cooked. Drain any excess grease, then add the marinara or pizza sauce. Stir to combine and let simmer for 2-3 minutes before removing from heat.
Spread the sausage and sauce mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish. Top it with a layer of shredded mozzarella cheese.
Scatter the diced green bell pepper, diced onion, pepperoni slices, and black olives evenly over the cheese layer.
In a medium mixing bowl, prepare the biscuit topping by combining the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold, cubed butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the milk until just combined, being careful not to overmix. Add the dried oregano and garlic powder for added flavor, and stir gently.
Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough over the pizza filling, leaving some gaps for steam to escape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and cooked through.
Allow the Pizza Cobbler to cool for 5 minutes before serving warm. Enjoy!
