Description
These golden-baked pizza bombs are filled with melty mozzarella and savory pepperoni—perfect for dipping in marinara and devouring on pizza night.
Ingredients
1 can (8 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough
3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup mini pepperoni slices (use halal if needed)
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Marinara or pizza sauce, for dipping
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Separate biscuit dough and flatten each piece into a small circle using your hands or a rolling pin.
Place a small amount of mozzarella cheese and a few mini pepperoni slices in the center of each dough circle.
Fold the dough over the filling and pinch the edges tightly to seal into a ball.
In a small bowl, mix melted butter with garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Brush this mixture over each dough ball.
Arrange the sealed bombs seam-side down on the baking sheet.
Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
Serve warm with marinara or pizza sauce for dipping.
Notes
Use turkey or plant-based pepperoni for a halal or vegetarian option.
Add a spoonful of pizza sauce inside for a saucier filling.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat in the oven or air fryer.
Great for meal prep—freeze unbaked bombs and bake straight from frozen with a few extra minutes.
