I wish I had this recipe back when we used to have lots and lots of get togethers. When my kids were little, it seemed there was always something going on. Birthday parties, Memorial Day parties, 4th of July parties, you name it. Always an excuse to make and eat great food.
I'm a sucker for anything pizza or pizza flavored. In fact, my most missed food since my diagnosis has and will always be pizza. Lucky for me, I've managed to crack the code for making a mean gluten free pizza, whether it's pan pizza, New York, or anything in between. This appetizer recipe is so easy and quick. With no yeast, there's no extra time involved and it's one of the quickest ways to get the flavor of pizza. It's always a hit.
The ingredients you'll need
- Gluten free biscuit dough - unfortunately, I have yet to find a can of gf biscuit dough, have you? I honestly doubt it would be that great if we did find it. But lucky for you (and me!) I have a few options here on the blog. I've made this recipe using both my gluten free buttermilk biscuits and my gluten free cream biscuits and both are equally delicious and work well.
- Shredded cheese - you can use any combination of cheese here, but I just buy the pre-shredded Italian cheese blend, which has mozzarella, parmesan, and a few other pizza-style cheeses.
- Pizza sauce - what's pizza sauce? Is it marinara sauce? In my opinion, they're two totally different things! Pizza sauce is strictly for all things pizza, while marinara sauce is more like a jar of spaghetti sauce. My pizza hut copycat pizza sauce is great in this recipe, but feel free to use whatever you'd like. All pizza sauce should be gluten free, but always check to make sure.
How to make pull apart pizza
- Step 1: Make biscuit dough per recipe instructions.
- Step 2: Roll out biscuit dough to about ½-inch thick and cut into small pieces.
- Step 3: Place biscuit pieces in a large bowl and add shredded cheese, melted butter, olive oil, Italian seasoning, and any other toppings you're adding.
- Step 4: Toss biscuit pieces with cheese and toppings to coat completely.
- Step 5: Drop coated biscuits randomly into a greased Bundt pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits don't give way when you press lightly on them.
- Step 6: Carefully flip out onto a plate and, if desired, flip back over onto a serving plate (so the baked top is back on top). Serve with pizza sauce.
Frequently asked questions
No, you can bake it in any baking dish you'd like, such as a 9 by 13-inch rectangular dish. Just make sure your dish is at least 2 inches deep as the biscuits will puff up as they bake.
Absolutely! Add your favorite pizza toppings mixed right into the bowl with the biscuits and cheese.
You can make the components in advance and bake it in advance, but I wouldn't combine the biscuit dough with the other ingredients until you're ready to bake. After baking, it can be reheated in a 300-degree oven wrapped in foil for 15-20 minutes.

Pull Apart Pizza Biscuits
Ingredients
- ½ recipe gluten free buttermilk biscuit dough or gluten free cream biscuit dough)
- 3 cups (339g) shredded Italian cheese blend
- ¼ cup (4 tablespoon or 56g) salted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- copycat Pizza Hut pizza sauce, for dipping (or your favorite pizza sauce)
- favorite pizza toppings (if desired)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425° F. Grease a 10-cup Bundt pan and set aside.
- After making the biscuit dough, pat or roll it out until it's roughly ½-inch thick. It doesn't need to be exact. Cut it into small (roughly one inch) squares using a sharp knife, bench scraper, or pastry wheel.
- Toss all the ingredients, except for the pizza sauce, in a large bowl until well mixed (I like to use my hands for this as a spoon tends to squish the pieces of biscuit dough). Pour into the prepared Bundt pan (or 9 by 13-inch pan). Bake for 20-23 minutes, or until biscuits are puffed, baked through, and the outside is dark brown (from the cheese). Cover with foil halfway through baking if it's getting too brown.
- Remove from the oven and use a butter knife to loosen the edges. Flip out onto a plate and then flip back over onto a serving platter (so the craggy side is up). Serve warm or at room temperature with pizza sauce.

This recipe was delicious! We are gluten and dairy free. We used dairy free butter and cheese and it was still so amazing. For the biscuit dough I used a mixture of coconut cream and almond milk with a little vinegar to make the buttermilk and it worked great!
We’ve made so many of your recipes and love trying your new ones. Our family (gf and not) go gaga over your Hawaiian rolls and cinnamon rolls. Thanks so much for your hard work!

Awe, thank you so much, Melanie, for your kind words! I'm thrilled you're enjoying my recipes, and dairy free at that!!

Hi Kim, what a great recipe, made this a couple of weeks ago during Super Bowl and of course since we just saw the best super bowl commercials had to rename to Pizza Puppy Baby Monkey Bread. Haha 😂 my husband and I both love this pizza bread, another amazing recipe. Thank you for all these wonderful baked goods, great for us Celiacs and the GF World.
Kim says
Haha! Hysterical!!
Thanks so much, Shari 😍

I’m going to try this recipe tomorrow but I wanted to know if you think I can make this up to putting it in the pan and store it in the fridge until I’m ready to bake it?
I love your recipes. I messed up the cinnamon rolls the first time I made them so I had to redeem myself and they are seriously the best and most fulfilling to satisfy my cravings!! Thank you.
Kim says
Awe, thank you so much Angela!! I'm so happy you're enjoying my recipes 😍
I think you could certainly make it up ahead of time and then just pop it right in the oven from the fridge 😋
