Ingredients
Primary Ingredients
- 2 cans refrigerated biscuit dough (16 biscuits total)
- 8 oz pepperoni (optional)
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese, freshly shredded
Seasonings and Oils
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning or pizza seasoning
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ⅓ cup olive oil or melted butter
Serving
- Marinara sauce for serving
Instructions
- Prepare the Oven and Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease a Bundt pan with cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking.
- Cut the Biscuit Dough: Open the refrigerated biscuit dough cans and cut each biscuit into quarters, creating smaller bite-sized pieces.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the biscuit pieces, pepperoni slices (if using), shredded mozzarella cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and olive oil or melted butter. Toss everything together thoroughly until the biscuit pieces are evenly coated with the seasoning and oil.
- Fill the Bundt Pan: Transfer the mixture into the prepared Bundt pan. Spread it out evenly to ensure uniform cooking.
- Bake: Place the Bundt pan in the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the biscuit pieces in the center are fully cooked. If the top browns too quickly, cover loosely with aluminum foil to prevent burning.
- Rest and Serve: Remove the pan from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Carefully invert the Bundt pan onto a serving plate. Serve the pull apart bread warm with marinara or pizza sauce for dipping.
Notes
- Check the biscuit pieces in the center for doneness before removing from the oven to avoid undercooked dough.
- If the top browns too quickly, loosely tent the pan with foil and continue baking until fully cooked.
- Customize by adding your favorite pizza toppings such as different meats, cheeses, or vegetables to vary the flavor.
- Melted butter can be used instead of olive oil for a richer taste.
