Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 tube Refrigerated biscuit dough
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese
- 20 pieces Pepperoni slices
- 0.5 cup Pizza sauce
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Open the refrigerated biscuit dough tube and separate the biscuits. Flatten each biscuit into a 3-inch round using your hands or a rolling pin.
Place approximately 1 teaspoon of pizza sauce in the center of each biscuit round.
Add a small pinch of mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce, followed by a piece of pepperoni (or more if desired).
Carefully fold the edges of the dough up and over the filling, pinching the seams together to form a small sealed ball. Place the balls seam-side-down on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and grated Parmesan cheese.
Brush the tops of the pizza bites with the seasoned olive oil mixture to add flavor and a golden crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the pizza bites are golden brown and fully cooked.
Remove from the oven and allow the bites to cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm with additional pizza sauce on the side for dipping.
