Pizza Bites

I was waiting for the perfect time to make these. They looked so fun and yummy over at Annie's Eats, but then again, everything she makes looks delicious. There's not much to say about these other than they are super easy and super delicious. They were gone in about 3 minutes once I set them on the table for the game today.

Pizza Bites

from: Annie's Eats

Ingredients:
½ batch pizza dough (enough for 1 pizza)
4 oz. mozzarella cheese, cubed (about 20-24 pieces)
Sliced pepperoni

For topping:
Olive oil
Italian seasoning
Grated Parmesan cheese

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400˚ F.  Lightly grease a 9-inch pie plate or cake pan.  Divide the pizza dough into 20-24 roughly equal sized pieces.  Take one of the dough pieces, top with a cube of cheese and a slice or two of pepperoni.  Pull the edges of the dough around the fillings and pinch closed.  Place seam-side down in the baking dish.  Repeat with the remaining dough pieces.

Lightly brush the tops of the dough balls with olive oil.  Sprinkle with Italian seasoning and grated Parmesan cheese.  Bake for 20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.

I had marinara sauce to serve with them, but forgot it at home. They were great either way!
