Description
Pepperoni Pizza Monkey Bread is a fun and delicious twist on traditional pizza, combining the flavors of pepperoni and cheese in a pull-apart bread format.
Ingredients
- 2 cans (16 oz each) refrigerated biscuit dough
- 8 oz pepperoni, sliced
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup pizza sauce, for dipping
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley, optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 10-inch Bundt pan generously with cooking spray or butter.
- Prepare the biscuit dough. Separate the biscuits and cut each one into 4 pieces.
- Make the garlic butter. In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
- Build the monkey bread. Add the biscuit pieces, pepperoni, mozzarella, and Parmesan to the bowl. Toss gently until everything is evenly coated.
- Fill the Bundt pan. Transfer the mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly without packing it too tightly.
- Bake for 35–45 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through in the center.
- Cool briefly. Let the monkey bread rest in the pan for about 5–10 minutes. Carefully invert it onto a serving plate.
- Serve warm with pizza sauce for dipping. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
Notes
- If the top starts browning too quickly, loosely cover the pan with aluminum foil during the last 10–15 minutes of baking.
