Description
Delicious cheesy, pepperoni-filled dough balls that are simple to make and perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (8 oz can, 8 count)
- 0.75 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (about 1.5 tablespoons per bomb)
- 0.5 cup mini pepperoni slices
- 2 tablespoons butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F or your air fryer to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, combine melted butter, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Mix well and set aside.
- Open the biscuit can and separate the dough. Gently flatten each biscuit with your fingers into a 3 to 4 inch round disc.
- Place about 1 tablespoon of mozzarella cheese and 3 to 4 mini pepperoni slices in the center of each dough round.
- Carefully gather the edges of the dough and pinch them together firmly at the top. Roll gently between your palms to form a smooth ball.
- Place the sealed dough balls seam-side down on the baking sheet. Brush the tops generously with the seasoned butter mixture.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until golden brown and bombs sound hollow when gently tapped, or air fry in batches for about 8 minutes. Let cool for 2 to 3 minutes before serving.
Notes
Make sure to pinch the seams well to prevent the cheese from leaking out while baking. Feel free to experiment with other ingredients like cooked sausage, veggies, or different cheeses.
