Ingredients :
• 2 tbsp melted butter: For brushing the dough for a golden, flavorful crust.
• 1 tsp garlic powder: Adds a garlicky kick to the butter topping.
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning: Provides classic pizza flavor.
• 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough: The base for these pizza bombs.
• 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese: For that ooey-gooey cheesy center.
• 1/2 cup mini pepperoni slices: Adds savory, meaty flavor.
Directions :
1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
2. Prepare the Butter Topping
In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Set aside for brushing later.
3. Prepare the Dough
Separate the biscuit dough into individual pieces. Flatten each biscuit into a 4-inch circle using your hands or a rolling pin.
Place a small handful of shredded mozzarella cheese (about 1 tablespoon) and mini pepperoni slices in the center of each dough circle.
4. Seal the Pizza Bombs
Carefully fold the edges of the dough up and around the filling, pinching it tightly at the top to seal.
Roll the dough into a smooth ball, ensuring no gaps or openings.
5. Arrange and Brush
Place the dough balls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the tops with the prepared butter mixture to give them flavor and help them brown beautifully.
6. Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
7. Serve
Remove the pizza bombs from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
Serve warm with a side of marinara or pizza sauce for dipping.
