Description

You’re going to love this quick and easy recipe for Parmesan Bread Bites! These Dominos copycat bread bites are kid-friendly and perfect for parties, game day or family movie nights. 


Ingredients

1 can (391g) refrigerated pizza dough (we used Pillsbury brand)

1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, shredded

Melted Garlic Butter:

4 Tablespoons butter, melted

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 and 1/2 teaspoons Italian seasoning

1/2 cup marinara sauce (for dipping)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Alternatively, you can spray a thin coat of cooking spray on the baking sheet. 
  2. SHAPE THE DOUGH INTO LOGS: Open the package of pizza dough and cut it into four pieces. Roll each piece into a long rope about 1-inch thick.  Use a pizza cutter or clean scissors to cut the dough into 1-inch pieces. They should be bite-sized and you can make them a little bigger if you like. Place the pieces onto prepared baking sheet.
  3. MAKE THE GARLIC BUTTER – In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter a few seconds at a time just until melted. Whisk in the garlic powder, salt and Italian seasoning.  Use a pastry brush to brush each of the bread bites with a light coat of garlic butter. (You will need more later and shouldn’t use up all the butter for this step).

  4. Sprinkle generously with grated Parmesan. Save a little Parmesan to sprinkle on the baked bread bites after they’ve finished cooking.

  5. Bake in 375°F oven for 15 to 17 minutes. Cooking time will vary depending on the size of the bread bites. They should be light golden brown and will overbake quickly, so keep a close eye on them!

  6. Remove from oven and brush them again with the garlic butter and sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese.

  7. Transfer to serving dish and serve with marinara sauce, pizza sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
