Ingredients You’ll Need
-
Crescent Roll Dough:
1 package refrigerated crescent roll dough (8 oz),
Pizza Sauce:
1/2 cup pizza sauce, plus extra for dipping
How to Make Two-Ingredient Pizza Chips
Step 1: Prep Your Dough
Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lining your baking sheet with parchment paper. This not only makes cleanup a breeze, but it’s crucial for achieving that perfectly crisp bottom on your Two-Ingredient Pizza Chips. Simply unroll the crescent roll dough right onto your prepared pan, gently pinching any seams together to form one even sheet.
Step 2: Spread the Sauce
Grab your spoon and evenly spread that vibrant pizza sauce right up to the edges, leaving just a small border so your sauce doesn’t escape during baking. The sauce gives your chips a punch of pizza tang and keeps the texture saucy-not-soggy—the ideal backdrop for any extra toppings you might dream up.
Step 3: Bake to Perfection
Slide the tray into your hot oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes. What you’re looking for: a light golden crust and a smell that instantly transports you to your favorite pizzeria. The edges get deliciously crisp while the centers stay just soft enough for addictive snacking.
Step 4: Slice and Serve
Let the baked sheet cool for a couple minutes—just enough so you can handle it—then grab a sharp knife or pizza cutter and slice into bite-sized squares or triangles. Arrange them invitingly on your platter, right next to a ramekin of extra pizza sauce for dunking, and watch them disappear.
How to Serve Two-Ingredient Pizza Chips
Garnishes
Take your Two-Ingredient Pizza Chips up a notch with a finishing touch: scatter over some Italian seasoning, a shower of grated Parmesan, or a few sprinkles of crushed red pepper. Want them oozy and cheesy? Add a handful of shredded mozzarella in the last few minutes of baking. If you’re feeling extra festive, mini pepperoni slices never hurt!
Side Dishes
Pile these pizza chips high alongside a crisp Caesar salad, a bowl of marinated olives, or a platter of crunchy crudites for a complete snack board. The beauty of this recipe is that it fits perfectly into any appetizer spread, whether you’re hosting friends or just treating yourself.
Creative Ways to Present
For a crowd, scatter the freshly baked chips down the middle of your table on a big cutting board and let everyone dig in communally. You can also serve them in little paper cones at parties or wrap them up in parchment for a charming, portable snack. For game day, arrange the Two-Ingredient Pizza Chips in a circle on a pizza tray with dipping sauce pools in the center—it’s all the fun of pizza, chip-style!
Make Ahead and Storage
Storing Leftovers
If you happen to have any leftovers (highly unlikely, but it never hurts to be prepared), let the chips cool completely before storing. Place them into an airtight container and keep at room temperature for up to two days. They’ll stay crisp and delicious for a quick grab-and-go nibble.
Freezing
For longer storage, you can freeze your Two-Ingredient Pizza Chips. Arrange the cooled chips in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze until solid. Then transfer to a zip-top bag or airtight container, separating layers with parchment. They’ll keep well in the freezer for up to a month.
Reheating
To bring back that crave-worthy crispness, preheat your oven to 350°F and reheat the chips on a baking sheet for 5–7 minutes. This brings them right back to fresh-baked glory. You can even toss them under the broiler for a minute if you want the edges extra crunchy.
FAQs
Can I add cheese or other toppings?
Absolutely! Once you’ve spread the sauce, sprinkle your Two-Ingredient Pizza Chips with shredded mozzarella, Parmesan, sliced olives, or mini pepperoni before baking. Make it your own pizza party with whatever toppings you love most.
Do the chips stay crispy?
Yes, they do! Thanks to the crescent dough and the way they’re baked, these chips develop a sturdy, crisp texture, especially when eaten warm from the oven. They’ll stay crisp for a day or two if stored properly.
What pizza sauce should I use?
You can use any pizza sauce you enjoy—store-bought or homemade. Just look for one with a thicker texture so your chips don’t get soggy. If you’re feeling adventurous, try pesto or even barbecue sauce for a twist!
How thick should I spread the sauce?
A thin, even layer is key. You want every bite of your Two-Ingredient Pizza Chips to get that pop of flavor without weighing down the dough. Aim for just enough to cover but not pool on the surface.
Can I double or triple the recipe?
Definitely! Simply use more packages of crescent roll dough and extra sauce, and bake in batches or use multiple sheets. It’s a wonderful way to feed a hungry crowd without any fuss!
Final Thoughts
Whether you’re whipping up a fast after-school snack, a playful appetizer for friends, or simply satisfying that pizza craving in minutes, Two-Ingredient Pizza Chips are truly a revelation. They’re ridiculously easy, impossibly tasty, and just begging to be shared. So grab those two magic ingredients and treat yourself to this quick, pizza-inspired joy!
