Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

15 oz pizza dough, divided
½ cup marinara sauce
1 tablespoon pesto
3 tablespoons shredded mozzarella cheese
3 teaspoons shredded cheddar cheese
¼ cup pepperoni, chopped
¼ cup onion, chopped
¼ cup bell pepper, chopped
¼ cup mushroom, chopped
¼ cup tomato, chopped
¼ cup ham, chopped
¼ cup pineapple, chopped
other assorted topping, if desired
ice cube tray, silicone or hard plastic

Steps:

  • If using fresh dough, let sit out at room temperature for 30 minutes in a covered and lightly oiled bowl.
  • On a floured surface, take one half of the dough and roll it out into a rectangle, about ⅛ of an inch (3 mm) thick. Repeat with other half of dough and set aside.
  • Lightly oil your ice cube tray if it's hard plastic.
  • Transfer the dough to cover the tray and press the dough down into every hole, holding for about 5 seconds to ensure the dough stretches properly. If it tears, you can use excess dough to patch up any holes.
  • Assemble each bite with approximately one teaspoon of sauce, such as marinara or pesto, one teaspoon of cheese, and desired toppings.
  • Cover the prepared bites with remaining dough and roll over the ice cube tray with rolling pin to seal.
  • Trim any excess dough and save for more pizza bites.
  • Freeze the ice cube tray for about an hour, until the dough has set.
  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF (180ºC).
  • Flip the tray onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet to release the bites. If necessary, use a paring knife to gently loosen.
  • Cut and separate the bites.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the dough is golden brown and serve warm.
  • Enjoy!
