Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (8-count) Southern Homestyle buttermilk biscuits (not flaky)
- 1 cup (257 g) pizza sauce, divided
- ½ cup (69 g) mini pepperoni slices, divided
- 4 ounces mozzarella cheese, cut into 16 equal-sized cubes
Garlic Butter:
- ¼ cup (½ stick / 57 g) unsalted butter, melted
- ¼ tsp garlic salt
- ¼ tsp Italian seasoning
- 2 tbsp parmesan cheese, grated
Instructions
- Prepare the Pizza Bombs:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a 12-inch oven-safe skillet with nonstick spray. Alternatively, you can use a greased baking dish (adjust baking time if needed). - Assemble the Bombs:
Remove biscuits from the can and place on a clean work surface. Using a rolling pin, flatten each biscuit to about ⅛-inch thickness. Add 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce, 1 tablespoon of pepperoni slices, and 2 mozzarella cubes to the center of each biscuit. Fold the edges together tightly, pinching to seal with no gaps. Place each bomb seam-side down into the skillet, repeating with remaining biscuits. - Bake:
Bake for 20-22 minutes, until biscuits are golden brown. - Garlic Butter Topping:
In a small bowl, combine melted butter, garlic salt, Italian seasoning, and parmesan. Brush over the hot pizza bombs once they’re out of the oven. - Serve & Enjoy:
