- Yield: 8-10 1x
Ingredients
- 2 (16.3 ounce) cans refrigerated biscuit dough
- 1 cup pizza sauce
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup non-pork pepperoni slices
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- Cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 10-inch Bundt pan with cooking spray.
- Open the biscuit dough cans and separate each biscuit. Cut each biscuit into 4-6 smaller pieces.
- In a large bowl, combine the biscuit pieces, pizza sauce, olive oil, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes (if using). Toss gently until all the dough pieces are evenly coated.
- Layer half of the coated biscuit pieces into the prepared Bundt pan. Sprinkle with 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese and half of the non-pork pepperoni slices.
- Add the remaining coated biscuit pieces to the pan, then top with the remaining 1 cup of mozzarella cheese and the rest of the non-pork pepperoni slices.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and cooked through. The cheese should be bubbly and melted.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes before carefully inverting it onto a serving platter.
- Serve warm and pull apart individual pieces.
Notes
For an extra cheesy crust, sprinkle a little Parmesan cheese over the top during the last 10 minutes of baking.
Customize with your favorite non-pork pizza toppings like diced bell peppers, cooked mushrooms, or black olives.
Ensure the dough is cooked through by checking the center; if it’s still doughy, return it to the oven for a few more minutes.
This dish is best served immediately, but leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheated gently.
