Papa John's Croissant Pizza

Papa John’s Croissant Pizza

Papa John’s Croissant Pizza redefines expectations with its buttery, flaky croissant crust, offering a light, indulgent twist on the classic pizza experience. A bold innovation that fuses comfort with culinary creativity.

  • Total Time: 2 hours 15 minutes
  • Yield: 1 large pizza (8 slices)

Ingredients

  • Buttery croissant-style dough (laminated with butter)
  • Enriched flour, yeast, salt, sugar
  • Tomato-based pizza sauce (slightly sweet)
  • Mozzarella cheese
  • Optional classic toppings: pepperoni, mushrooms, onions
  • Optional creative toppings: sweet or savory seasonal options

Instructions

  1. Prepare croissant dough by laminating enriched dough with layers of butter through multiple folds and rolling.
  2. Allow the dough to ferment properly to develop lightness and rich flavor.
  3. Roll and shape into pizza crust, ensuring even layers are maintained for flakiness.
  4. Spread a layer of tomato-based sauce, slightly sweet to complement the buttery crust.
  5. Top with mozzarella cheese and selected toppings, traditional or adventurous.
  6. Bake using a hot convection oven, possibly with steam, until crust is crisp and flaky and cheese is bubbling.
  7. Serve warm and enjoy the contrast of flaky crust and savory toppings.

Notes

Limited-time offering. Stay updated via Papa John’s site and social media. Crust’s light texture allows for indulgence without heaviness. Best enjoyed fresh for maximum flakiness and flavor contrast.
