Pizza Bites

So have you tried pizza bites yet?? I found them on one blog, made them superbowl night, and now I'm seeing them everywhere. But I guess I shouldn't be surprised, they are easy to make, fun to eat, and taste delicious.

I found the recipe at Annie's Eats. I omitted the pepperoni and added mushrooms, onions, and green peppers instead.

Ingredients:
½ batch pizza dough (enough for 1 pizza)
4 oz. mozzarella cheese, cubed (about 20-24 pieces)
Sliced pepperoni

For topping:
Olive oil
Italian seasoning
Grated Parmesan cheese

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Lightly grease a 9-inch pie plate or cake pan. Divide the pizza dough into 20-24 roughly equal sized pieces. Take one of the dough pieces, top with a cube of cheese and a slice or two of pepperoni. Pull the edges of the dough around the fillings and pinch closed. Place seam-side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the remaining dough pieces.

Lightly brush the tops of the dough balls with olive oil. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning and grated Parmesan cheese. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown. Serve warm, with dipping sauce as desired.

  1. I made these tonight, they were a hit all around. I somehow missed your addition of onions and peppers. Next time I'll add those to atleast half! Delish.
