Ingredients
Scale
- 1 loaf sourdough bread (about 1 pound)
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 4 ounces sliced pepperoni
- 1/4 cup sliced black olives (optional)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Slice the sourdough loaf in half horizontally, creating a top and bottom half.
- Place the bread halves cut-side up on a baking sheet. Brush the cut sides with olive oil.
- Spread pizza sauce evenly over both halves.
- Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan cheese over the sauce.
- Arrange pepperoni slices on top of the cheese. Add black olives if desired.

- Remove from oven, let cool for 2 minutes, then slice into pieces and serve.
Notes
You can add other toppings like mushrooms, bell peppers, or cooked sausage if desired. For extra crunch, toast the bread halves lightly before assembling.
