I don’t approve of non-yeast leavening in pizza crusts for actual pizza. While this recipe has yeast, there’s no time for it to really rise, and the lion’s share of the leavening is actually coming from the baking powder in the biscuit mix. But this could be good for a fruit pizza (sort of a strawberry shortcake in wedges) or for a self-consciously southern pizza, topped with sausage gravy and extra-cheesy cheese grits.
