Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets
- 40 slices Pepperoni slices
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tbsp Water
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Italian seasoning
- 2 tbsp Grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 cup Marinara sauce (for dipping, optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheets to ensure they are even and smooth. Cut each sheet into 20 squares, resulting in a total of 40 squares.
Place one slice of pepperoni onto the center of each puff pastry square.
Sprinkle a small amount of shredded mozzarella (approximately 1 teaspoon) on top of the pepperoni slices.
Fold the corners of each puff pastry square into the center, pinching the edges together to seal. This will create a small bundle. Place each bundle seam-side down onto the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash. Brush the egg wash lightly over the tops of the pepperoni bites.
Sprinkle the tops of the bites with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and grated Parmesan cheese for added flavor.
Bake the pepperoni bites in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed up.
Remove the bites from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping, if desired.
