Ingredients

  • Pizza Dough/Store-bought Premade Pizza Dough
  • 1 Cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
  • 1/3 Cup Marinara Sauce
  • ¼ Cup Chopped Pepperoni/ Defrosted and Drained Frozen Chopped Spinach

Instructions

  1. Make pizza dough an hour or two ahead of time or use premade dough.
  2. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
  3. Take ¼ of pizza dough and roll out on a floured surface until ¼ inch thick.
  4. In a small bowl, mix together the cheese, sauce, and spinach or pepperoni.
  5. Take ¾ tablespoons of sauce and cheese mixture and place eight to twelve dollops on to half of the dough. Fold the other half of the dough over the sauce and cheese. Lightly press the air out of the pockets and seal the area around the sauce and cheese. Use a knife to cut small squares around each spot of cheese and sauce. Using a fork, crimp the edges of the dough together. Continue this process until all the dough is used.
  6. Place finished puffs on a large baking sheet dusted with flour. Bake for 12 -15 minutes until golden brown. Bake in batches until all puffs are done. Serve ASAP or freeze in a plastic bag for up to a month. Reheat in the oven at 350 degrees F until hot.
