1. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven according to the instructions on the garlic bread packaging or as needed.
2. Prepare the Garlic Toast:
- Arrange the garlic bread slices on a baking sheet.
- If the garlic bread slices don’t come pre-baked, follow the package instructions to bake them partially.
3. Assemble the Pizza:
- Spread a layer of pizza sauce on each garlic bread slice.
- Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
- Add your favorite pizza toppings. Customize each slice according to your preferences.
4. Bake:
- Bake the garlic toast pizzas in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the garlic bread are golden brown. This usually takes about 10-15 minutes, but follow the instructions on the garlic bread packaging.
5. Optional Broiling:
- If you want a golden, crispy top, you can broil the pizzas for an additional 1-2 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
6. Garnish and Serve:
- Remove the garlic toast pizzas from the oven.
- Optionally, brush the edges of the garlic bread with a little olive oil for added flavor and shine.
- Garnish with dried oregano and crushed red pepper flakes if desired.
7. Slice and Enjoy:
- Allow the garlic toast pizzas to cool for a minute or two before slicing.
- Serve hot and enjoy your quick and tasty Garlic Toast Pizza!
