Pizza Bites Recipe
These are ooey and gooey, offering all the flavor of pizza but at a fraction of the labor and time it takes to make a full pizza. Being bite-size not only makes these a great grab-and-go snack for kids but also a fun party appetizer or game day snack.
Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 1 package Pillsbury Crescent Rolls 8 oz
- avocado oil spray (optional) to help prevent sticking
- 8 teaspoons pizza sauce such as Rao's or any brand you like
- 8 pieces fresh mozzarella cheese you can use shredded as well
- 8 slices pepperoni you can use turkey pepperoni as well
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400F (200C).
- Unroll the Pillsbury dough, pull apart each piece and take each triangle and roll it into a ball. Flatten that dough ball and spray your muffin tin with some avocado spray, if using. If your muffin tin is brand new and non-stick you might not have to spray it at all.
- I flatten each piece of dough into the muffin tin and make sure to press it down and along the sides so that it looks like a little cup.
- Place 1 teaspoon of pizza sauce into each cup and top with a piece of mozzarella.
- Add a slice of pepperoni on top and bake for 15 minutes or until the pizza bites are puffed up and golden. Enjoy!
