Ingredients
  

1 package (16 oz) refrigerated pizza dough

1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

1/2 cup pepperoni slices, chopped

1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1 garlic clove, minced

1/4 cup marinara sauce (for dipping)

1 tablespoon olive oil

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Cooking spray or additional olive oil for greasing

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet with cooking spray or brush it with olive oil.

    Prepare the Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to a flat, even thickness. Cut the dough into squares, approximately 3x3 inches in size.

      Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese, chopped pepperoni, grated parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes (if using). Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.

        Fill the Dough: Take one square of pizza dough and place a heaping tablespoon of the cheese and pepperoni mixture in the center. Fold the corners of the dough over the filling to create a ball and pinch the seams to seal tightly. Place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough squares and filling.

          Brush with Olive Oil: Once all pizza bombs are assembled, brush the tops with olive oil to promote golden browning.

            Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the dough is puffed and golden brown.

              Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Serve warm alongside marinara sauce for dipping.
