Welcome! I’m Sarah, and I’m so happy you’re here. Make these simple, cheesy pizza bites using pre-made biscuit dough. They are quick, perfect for parties, and deliver classic pizza flavor in a portable snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (16.3 ounce) can refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup mini pepperoni slices
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Open the can of biscuit dough. Separate the biscuits and place them on a clean surface. Gently flatten each biscuit with your hand or a rolling pin until it is about 1/4 inch thick.
  3. Place about 1 teaspoon of pizza sauce in the center of each flattened biscuit. Do not overfill.
  4. Top the sauce with a small amount of mozzarella cheese and a few mini pepperoni slices.
  5. Bring the edges of the biscuit dough up and around the filling. Pinch the seams together firmly to seal the filling inside, creating a ball or pouch. This step is important for making sure the filling stays inside.
  6. Place the sealed pizza bites seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, garlic powder, and dried oregano. Brush this mixture lightly over the tops of the pizza bites.
  8. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the bites are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm with extra pizza sauce for dipping.

Notes

  • For a Supreme Pizza Bites variation, add a pinch of cooked, crumbled sausage or finely diced bell pepper with the cheese.
  • If you prefer a crispier crust, you can lightly spray the tops with cooking spray before brushing with the garlic butter mixture.
  • These are excellent for kid friendly pizza snacks because they are easy for small hands to hold.
