Cheesy Pepperoni Pull-Apart Bread
1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly coat with nonstick cooking spray.
2. Cut the refrigerated pizza dough into evenly sized pieces.
3. In a bowl, combine the First Street Whole Milk Mozzarella Cheese, First Street Sharp Cheddar Cheese, and First Street Grated Parmesan Cheese.
4. Flatten each piece of dough slightly. Add a few pieces of pepperoni and a spoonful of the cheese mixture to the center.
5. Bring the edges of the dough together around the filling and pinch closed to form a ball.
6. Arrange the filled dough balls seam-side down in a circular wreath shape on the prepared baking sheet, placing them close enough to touch as they bake.
7. Combine melted butter, minced garlic, and Italian seasoning in a small bowl. Brush the mixture generously over the entire wreath.
8. Sprinkle additional First Street Grated Parmesan Cheese over the top.
9. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and cooked through and the cheese inside is melted.
10. While the wreath bakes, warm the First Street Marinara Sauce with Romano Cheese according to package directions.
11. Allow the wreath to cool for about 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, and place the warm marinara sauce in the center of the wreath for dipping.
12. Serve warm and pull apart individual pieces to enjoy.
