About the recipe
Pizza with puff pastry or puff pastry tart is one of the best light and delicious savory recipes that I created using puff pastry sheets. Puff pastry dough is used to make this pizza instead of regular pizza dough. Add any toppings and cheese of your choice with pizza or marinara sauce. Puff pastry can easily make desserts, snacks, appetizers, and a light meal. Thaw-fill and bake is all you have to do. You only need to worry about how to handle compliments once you bake and serve these treats. This pizza with puff pastry will be a crowd-pleaser on game day, spring, summer, Thanksgiving, or Christmas holidays.
Ingredients
This pizza with puff pastry sheets or savory puff pastry tart is highly customizable. I have used the veggies available in my pantry to make this pizza with your favorite toppings. You will needPuff pastry sheet: I prefer and use Pepperidge Farm® Puff Pastry sheets available in the frozen section of your grocery store, Make sure you thaw them according to package instructions.

Tips
If you make this for the party, you can also make puff pastry pizza bites. Just cut the puff pastry sheet into 6 or 8 squares and then bake it so you can serve it as a finger food or appetizer. Only add a little sauce to your puff pastry sheet. Else it may make your base soggy. Try our mushroom pizza or caramelized onion topping for the pizza.
