Pizza Bombs with Kingsey® White Firm Unripened Cheese
Ingredients
454 g (1 lb.) prepared pizza dough, room temperature
60 mL (1/4 cup) olive oil
2 mL (1/2 tsp) dried oregano
2 mL (1/2 tsp) garlic powder
60 mL (1/4 cup) marinara sauce for recipe, additional sauce for dipping
48 thin slices of pepperoni
100 g (3.5 oz) Kingsey® white firm unripened cheese, cut into 12 cubes
Sea salt flakes
Directions
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin pan. In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, oregano, and garlic powder.
Divide the pizza dough into 12 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball, then flatten it using your hands or a rolling pin to create a 10-cm (4-in) round.
Spoon 5 mL (1/4 tsp) marinara sauce in the center of the dough round. Top with 2 slices of pepperoni, 1 cube of Kingsey®white firm unripened cheese, and 2 more slices of pepperoni. Gently pull the edges of the dough up and over the filling, pressing and pinching to close the bundle up. Repeat to create 12 pizza bombs.
Coat each pizza bomb into the olive oil mixture. Place each pizza bomb in a muffin cup, seam side down then sprinkle the tops with sea salt flakes.
Bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Cool pizza bombs for about 10 minutes. Serve immediately, with additional marinara sauce for dipping, if desired.
