Ingredients for Cheesy Baked Spaghetti Pie with Garlic Crust
-
1 package refrigerated biscuits (such as Grands! Butter Tastin’, 16.3 oz / 462 g)
-
1/2 tsp (2.5 g) garlic salt
-
1/2 tsp (2.5 g) dried oregano
-
2–3 cups (480–720 ml) leftover spaghetti in sauce

16 oz (450 g) fresh mozzarella cheese

Sliced tomato, optional
How to Make Cheesy Baked Spaghetti Pie with Garlic Crust
-
Butter a deep-dish glass pie dish. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
-
Flatten each refrigerated biscuit with your hands or a rolling pin.
-
Press the flattened biscuits into the bottom of the pie dish to create a crust, pinching them up along the top edge to form a lip.
-
Sprinkle the crust edge with garlic salt and dried oregano.
-
Add the leftover spaghetti into the prepared crust.
-
Slice the fresh mozzarella and layer it evenly over the spaghetti, covering it completely.
-
Sprinkle the top with a little more oregano for added flavor.
-
Garnish with sliced tomato if desired.
-
Place the pie dish on a baking sheet (to catch any melting cheese that might spill) and bake for about 30 minutes, or until the center of the bottom crust is a light golden brown. If your spaghetti is cold from the fridge, you may need to add an extra 15 minutes of baking time. Use a pie crust shield or foil if the edges brown too quickly.
