Ingredients
Bread and Dough
- 1 tube refrigerated biscuit dough (or pizza dough)
Butter and Seasoning
- 3 tablespoons melted butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan
Optional Toppings
- Chopped parsley
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking the bread bites.
- Prepare Dough: Cut the refrigerated biscuit dough into quarters and place the pieces into a mixing bowl for easy coating with the butter and seasonings.
- Mix Butter and Seasonings: In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter with minced garlic and Italian seasoning, mixing well to infuse the flavors.
- Coat Dough Pieces: Pour the butter-garlic mixture over the biscuit pieces in the bowl, then add the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese. Toss everything together so each piece is evenly coated and cheesy.
- Arrange for Baking: Transfer the coated biscuit pieces to a greased baking dish or muffin tin, spreading them out to allow even baking.
- Bake: Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 15 to 18 minutes until the bread bites are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Garnish and Serve: Once baked, optionally sprinkle chopped parsley over the bread bites for a fresh herbal touch. Serve warm, perfect for sharing as an appetizer or snack.
Notes
- Add red pepper flakes for a spicy version to elevate the flavor.
- Serve with marinara sauce for dipping to complement the cheesy garlic flavors.
