How to Make Pepperoni Pizza Bites

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine pizza dough, 1/2 cup pizza sauce, and 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese. Mix well.
  3. Divide the dough into 12 equal portions.
  4. Roll each portion into a small circle (about 3 inches in diameter).
  5. Place 1 teaspoon of pizza sauce and 2-3 slices of pepperoni on one half of each circle.
  6. Fold the other half of the circle over the filling to form a half-moon shape.
  7. Crimp the edges with a fork to seal.
  8. Place the pizza bites onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  9. Brush the tops with olive oil and sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese.
  10. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  11. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
