Cheesy Pepperoni Pizza Bombs

Print Recipe

Delicious bite-sized pizza bombs filled with pepperoni, mozzarella cheese, and marinara sauce, baked to golden perfection with a crispy crust.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (13 oz) can pizza dough
  • 1/2 cup marinara sauce
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (about 6 oz)
  • 1/2 cup chopped pepperoni
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
  • Fresh basil leaves (optional)
  • Italian seasoning (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface and cut into squares or circles large enough to hold filling.
  3. In a bowl, mix shredded mozzarella cheese and chopped pepperoni.
  4. Place a spoonful of marinara sauce and the cheese-pepperoni mixture in the center of each dough piece.
  5. Fold the dough over the filling and pinch edges to seal tightly, forming a ball.
  6. Place the pizza bombs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  7. Brush each bomb with olive oil and sprinkle garlic powder, Parmesan cheese, and optional red pepper flakes and Italian seasoning on top.
  8. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
  9. Remove from oven and optionally garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.

Notes

For best results, ensure the dough is sealed well to prevent filling leakage. Serve warm with extra marinara sauce for dipping. You can customize fillings with other pizza toppings if desired.
