Ingredients
Scale
For the Dough
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 packet instant yeast
- 1 cup lukewarm water
- 2 tbsp olive oil or melted butter
For the Cheese Coating
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese (or mozzarella for gooey texture)
- 1 tsp garlic powder (or fresh minced garlic)
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning (or dried oregano and basil)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it is fully heated and ready for baking the bread bites.
- Prepare Dough Pieces: Roll out the prepared pizza dough into 2-inch bite-sized pieces, perfect for popping into your mouth.
- Mix Cheese Coating: In a mixing bowl, combine grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning to create the flavorful coating.
- Coat Dough Bites: Lightly brush each dough piece with olive oil, then roll them thoroughly in the cheese mixture until well coated, forming a tasty crust.
- Arrange for Baking: Place the coated dough pieces spaced evenly on a parchment-lined baking sheet to allow for rising and even baking.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the bites turn golden brown and emit a delicious aroma. Monitor closely to avoid over-browning.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the bites to cool slightly before serving. Pair them with marinara sauce, ranch dressing, or your preferred dipping sauce for an enhanced flavor experience.
Notes
- Sprinkle with fresh parsley for extra flavor and a pop of color before serving.
- Ensure to use lukewarm water (around 110°F/43°C) to properly activate the yeast and achieve fluffy bites.
- For a chewier texture, substitute the Parmesan with mozzarella cheese or add in shredded mozzarella to the coating mix.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze up to 2 months for longer storage.
- Reheat leftover bites in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 10-15 minutes to restore crispiness.
- Optional additions include crushed red pepper flakes for spice, fresh herbs instead of dried seasoning, or stuffing the dough with pepperoni or olives for variation.
- Dipping sauces like garlic butter, marinara, ranch, or garlic aioli complement these bites beautifully.
