These Cheesy Stuffed Pizza Bites are a delightful twist on traditional pizza, offering a fun and shareable snack perfect for gatherings or family nights.
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Using parchment paper prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
Roll out the pizza dough and cut it into 24 equal squares.
Use a pizza cutter for quick and even cuts.
Place a cube of mozzarella cheese and a slice of pepperoni on each square.
Ensure the filling is centered to make wrapping easier.
Wrap the dough around the filling, pinching the edges to seal, and place seam-side down on the baking sheet.
Pinch the seams tightly to prevent the filling from leaking out during baking.
Brush the tops of the bites with olive oil, sprinkle with Italian seasoning and grated Parmesan cheese.
For a golden finish, use a generous amount of olive oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 16-20 minutes or until golden brown.
Check the bites halfway through to ensure even baking.
Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
