Pepperoni Puffs Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. Shape dough into 1-1/2-in. balls; flatten into 1/8-in. thick circles. Place 1 pepperoni slice and 1 cheese cube in center of each circle; wrap dough around pepperoni and cheese. Pinch edges to seal; shape into a ball. Repeat with remaining dough, cheese and pepperoni. Place seam side down on greased baking sheets; bake until light golden brown, 10-15 minutes. Cool slightly., Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Add garlic and salt, taking care not to brown butter or garlic; brush over puffs. Serve with marinara sauce; if desired, sprinkle with red pepper flakes and Parmesan., Freeze option: Cover and freeze unbaked pizza puffs on waxed paper-lined baking sheets until firm. Transfer to a freezer container; seal and return to freezer. To use, preheat oven to 325°; bake pizza puffs on greased baking sheets as directed, increasing time as necessary to heat through.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees
• 2. Grease a 24-cup mini muffin pan (I used shortning spray)
• 3. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and oregano
• 4. Whisk in milk and egg
• 5. Stir in pepperoni and cheese
• 6. Let stand 10 inutes
• 7. Stir and divide among the baking cups
• 8. Bake 20 - 25 minutes. Until puffed and golden.
• 9. Heat sauce and sprinkle half the basil over the sauce and half over the puffs, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Cut the puff pastry into six rectangles and place on a nonstick baking tray.
• On one rectangle, spread a tablespoon of marinara, avoiding the edges of the pastry. Top with pepperoni slices and cheese.
• Place a rectangle of pastry on top and seal the edges with a fork. Repeat with remaining pastry rectangles.
• Brush the pockets with egg wash.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the pastry is flaky and golden.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Cut the dough into 8 equal pieces. Using floured hands if needed, carefully stretch each piece into a thin disk (the shape doesn't have to be perfect) about 5 inches in diameter.
• Transfer the dough balls to the prepared baking sheet and fill each with 1/2 tablespoon mozzarella on one half, leaving a 1-inch border around the edge. Line the cheese with 3 slices pepperoni, and a strip of red pepper. Starting from the smaller border, stretch the dough over the filling, then continue rolling the dough (like you would roll a carpet) to wrap the filling twice. Place on a foil-lined baking sheet, seam-side down. Pinch any holes with your fingers to patch.
• Brush the dough with a very light coating of olive oil. Bake until golden-brown, 15 to 17 minutes, then remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
