Ingredients
  

1 package refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup sliced pepperoni

1/4 cup pizza sauce (plus extra for serving)

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1 tablespoon olive oil

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Fresh basil leaves (for garnish, optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

    Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese, sliced pepperoni, pizza sauce, and Italian seasoning. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.

      Prepare the Biscuit Dough: Open the package of refrigerated biscuit dough and separate the biscuits. Flatten each biscuit into a circle approximately 4 inches in diameter.

        Assemble the Pizza Bombs: Place about one tablespoon of the cheese and pepperoni mixture in the center of each biscuit circle. Gather the edges of the dough up and around the filling, pinching them together to seal tightly. Roll into a ball shape to ensure all contents are enclosed.

          Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the sealed pizza bombs seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

            Brush with Olive Oil: In a small bowl, mix the olive oil and garlic powder. Brush the mixture over the tops of each pizza bomb. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese for extra flavor.

              Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until they are golden brown and puffed up.

                Serve: Remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve warm with extra pizza sauce for dipping. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.
