  • Protein

    • 1/3 cup cooked and crumbled bulk Italian sausage
    • 1/3 cup pepperoni

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

2

Combine mozzarella, sausage, and pepperoni in a small bowl; set aside.

3

Lightly flour a work surface, and roll out dough 1/4-inch thick. Cut rounds with a biscuit or cookie cutter, and stretch each piece. Place a dollop of pizza sauce on each round, and top with about 1 tablespoon meat mixture. Fold dough over toppings into a ball, pinching the bottom to seal well; set aside, seam side down.

4

Lightly brush a cast iron skillet with oil. Place pizza poppers in skillet, and brush tops with oil. Sprinkle with basil, oregano, and garlic powder.

5

Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Garnish with grated Parmesan, and serve with pizza sauce for dipping.
