Instructions
Preheat Oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Flatten biscuits with hands (into a large disc shape) or you can use a rolling pin and a lightly floured working surface to roll out the biscuits. *Seal up any holes in your biscuit dough by pinching the dough back together.
Use a tablespoon add pizza sauce and spread over the center of the biscuit using the back of the tablespoon. Add shredded cheese and pepperoni slices (approx 1 tablespoon shredded mozzarella and 3-4 slices per pizza bomb)
Pull each corner of biscuit pastry up and pinch edges together to close (this will be the bottom). Place rounded biscuits on your parchment paper lined baking sheet (optional, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning).
Place in oven for approximately 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from oven, let cool slightly on the baking sheet, then serve while warm with marinara sauce and enjoy!
Notes
For best results, you'll want to shred your own mozzarella cheese. Pre-shredded cheese is coated with a non-binding agent (to keep it from sticking together) and, as a result, does not melt as well.
These versatile pizza pockets can easily be customized with all of your favorite pizza toppings. Try out sausage, onions, olives, bacon, peppers, or mushrooms!
For some extra flavor, sprinkle some Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning over your pizza bombs before baking them.
