Homemade Pizza Balls

We are definitely a pizza family! Whether it’s homemade pizza or ordering out, we have pizza at least once a week! Because we eat it soooo much, we try and vary it a bit! This Homemade Pizza Balls recipe is one we just started using. All you need are refrigerated biscuits, shredded cheese and your topping of choice.

The key to this recipe is to make sure you add the right seasoning on the top of the biscuit. This will make all the difference between a pizza ball and a cheese biscuit.

Here’s what you need:

Homemade Pizza Balls

Ingredients:

Refrigerated biscuits
Shredded Mozzarella cheese
Pepperoni slices
1 tablespoon Butter, melted
Garlic Powder
Garlic Salt
Italian Seasoning
Marinara or Spaghetti sauce

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees
Spray a baking sheet with non-stick spray
Flatten any size biscuit into a flat circle
Add Pepperoni to center of biscuit
Add shredded Mozzarella cheese to the top
Fold the biscuit in half and pinch the center, then fold over the corners to make a ball
Turn upside down and place on non-stick baking sheet
Melt 1 tablespoon of Butter
Using a brush, spread the melted butter on top of the pizza ball
Sprinkle the pizza ball with Garlic Powder, Garlic Salt and Italian Seasoning
Bake in the oven for 15 minutes until golden brown
Serve with warmed up marinara or spaghetti sauce for dipping

After you flatten the biscuit, you will add your toppings and cheese. We made pepperoni pizza balls so we added a few slices of pepperoni and cheese.

Fold over the pizza ball and pinch the dough so it stays closed. It will form a ball once all the ends are tucked in.

Spread out your pizza balls on a baking sheet that has already been sprayed with non-stick spray.

Sprinkle the garlic salt, garlic powder and Italian seasonings on top. Put in the oven at 375 degrees and bake for 15 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
