Ingredients
  

  • 1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated large biscuit dough such as Pillsbury Grands!
  • 4 oz low-moisture mozzarella cheese cut into 8 cubes
  • 1/4 cup mini pepperoni slices
  • 2 tbsp butter melted
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp dried Italian seasoning
  • 1 cup marinara sauce warmed, for dipping

Equipment

  • 1 Baking Sheet
  • 1 Small Bowl
  • 1 Parchment Paper

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Separate the 8 biscuits. Gently flatten each biscuit into a 3 to 4-inch round.
  3. Place one cube of mozzarella cheese and about 1 teaspoon of mini pepperonis in the center of each dough round.
  4. Bring the edges of the dough up and over the filling, pinching tightly to seal completely. Place the bombs seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. In a small bowl, stir together the melted butter, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.
  6. Brush the garlic butter mixture over the tops of the pizza bombs.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the tops are golden brown.
  8. Serve immediately with warm marinara sauce for dipping.

Notes

Ensure the seams are sealed very tightly to prevent the cheese from leaking during baking.
For best results, use low-moisture mozzarella cheese, as fresh mozzarella can make the dough soggy.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
