  • Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
  • Add your favorite pizza toppings on top of the cheese.
  • Place the baking sheet with the prepared French bread pizzas in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the baguette are slightly crispy.
