Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin.
- Unroll your can of refrigerated crescent roll dough. If using pre-cut triangles, press the seams together to form a solid sheet.
- Cut the crescent dough sheet into 12 equal squares and press one square into each greased muffin cup to form deep-dish crusts.
- Spoon about 1-2 teaspoons of pizza sauce into the bottom of each crescent dough cup.
- Sprinkle a generous pinch of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
- Add your chosen mini toppings evenly into each cup.
- Finish with another sprinkle of mozzarella cheese over the toppings.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are puffed and golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Let the Mini Deep Dish Crescent Roll Pizzas cool in the muffin tin for about 5 minutes before removing them.

Keywords: To prevent a soggy bottom, use a thicker pizza sauce and consider brushing the inside of the crescent dough cups with olive oil. Pre-cooking any watery vegetable toppings can also help.
