How to Make Mini Pizza Bites

Step 1: Preheat and Prep

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

If you’re using biscuit dough, separate each biscuit and flatten them out slightly. If you’re using pizza dough, roll it out and cut it into small rounds. You want them to be about two inches wide—big enough for a couple of bites but still easy to grab and eat.

Step 2: Assemble the Bites

Lay each piece of dough on the baking sheet. Add a small spoonful of pizza sauce to the center of each one. Don’t overdo it, or they’ll get soggy.

Next, sprinkle some mozzarella cheese on top, then add your favorite toppings. I usually go with mini pepperoni because my kids love them, but if I have extra veggies in the fridge, I’ll chop those up and sneak them in.

Step 3: Season and Bake

Brush the edges of each dough round with olive oil to help them get golden brown. Then, sprinkle a little Italian seasoning and garlic powder on top to give them extra flavor.

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the edges are golden brown. Try to let them cool for a minute before diving in, but no judgment if you don’t.

Step 4: Serve and Enjoy

Let them cool just enough to avoid burning your mouth, then serve with your favorite dips. Marinara sauce, ranch, or garlic butter all work great. If you’re making these for a party, set out a few different dips and let everyone choose.

Pro Tips for the Best Mini Pizza Bites

• For extra crispy edges, bake them on a pizza stone or preheated baking sheet.
• For more cheese pull, add a little cheese under the sauce as well as on top.
• To sneak in veggies, chop them up small and mix them into the sauce. The kids won’t even notice.

How to Store and Reheat

If you happen to have leftovers, here’s how to keep them fresh.

• In the fridge – Store in an airtight container for up to three days.
• In the freezer – Freeze unbaked bites and just bake them straight from frozen, adding a couple of extra minutes.
• To reheat – The air fryer is the best option. Heat at 350°F for three to four minutes, and they’ll be crispy again. The oven works too, but the microwave makes them a little soft.
