Ingredients

Pizza Bombs

  • 1 can (8-count) Southern Homestyle buttermilk biscuits, not flaky
  • 1 cup (257 g) pizza sauce, divided
  • ½ cup (69 g) mini pepperoni slices, divided
  • 4 ounces mozzarella cheese, cut into 16 equal-sized cubes, divided

Garlic Butter

  • ¼ cup (½ stick / 57 g) unsalted butter, melted
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic salt
  • ¼ teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese, grated

Instructions

Pizza Bombs

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F and spray a 12-inch, oven-safe skillet with nonstick spray. (You could also use a greased baking dish, but the cooking time may vary.)
  • Remove the biscuits from the can and place them on a clean work surface. Using a rolling pin, flatten each biscuit to about ⅛-inch thickness.
  • Top each biscuit with 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce, 1 tablespoon pepperoni slices, and 2 cubes of mozzarella cheese.
  • Fold the edges of the biscuit together, pinching them tightly so there are no holes or gaps. Place the bomb seam side down into the prepared skillet. Repeat with the remaining bombs.
  • Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown.

Garlic Butter

  • In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, garlic salt, Italian seasoning, and parmesan cheese.
  • After removing the pizza bombs from the oven, brush the garlic butter mixture over the top.
  • Serve with the remaining pizza sauce for dipping. Enjoy!

Notes

Air Fryer Pizza Bombs
You can also make these pizza bombs in your air fryer. Place the assembled pizza bombs into the basket of your air fryer in a single layer. Depending on the size of the air fryer, you may have to work in batches. Air fry at 350°F for 11-12 minutes, or until golden brown. After they are done, brush the garlic butter over the tops and serve with pizza sauce.
