Ingredients

• 8 pieces Refrigerated biscuit dough
• 0.5 cup Pizza sauce
• 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 16 pieces Pepperoni slices
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour (for dusting)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil or melted butter (optional for brushing)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Lightly dust your work surface with flour to prevent sticking.

Step 3

Take each piece of biscuit dough and gently roll it out into a 5-inch circle using a rolling pin.

Step 4

Spread about 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce onto the center of each dough circle, leaving a small border around the edges.

Step 5

Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of shredded mozzarella cheese onto the pizza sauce.

Step 6

Add 2 slices of pepperoni (or any other toppings of your choice) on top of the cheese.

Step 7

Sprinkle the Italian seasoning evenly across all the filled dough circles.

Step 8

Fold the dough in half to form a pocket, ensuring the edges align. Press the edges tightly with your fingers, then seal with a fork by pressing down along the edges.

Step 9

Place the sealed pizza pockets onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between them.

Step 10

Optional: Brush the tops of the pockets with olive oil or melted butter for a golden, crispy finish.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the pizza pockets are puffed and golden brown.

Step 12

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your E Z Pizza Pockets warm!
