Bloomin’ Pizza Bread
Bloomin’ Pizza Bread is filled with mozzarella and pepperoni and drizzled with garlic butter. This is a great appetizer for a potluck! Who doesn’t love pizza!
BLOOMIN’ PIZZA BREAD
Literally as soon as I took the Bloomin’ Onion Bread out of the oven my mind started racing of all the different possibilities and ways I could make this style of bread.
I’m always thinking of entertaining so the concept of a bread that everyone can just pull off and eat is interactive and perfect for company.
My first thought was a pizza infused bread because that’s always a crowd favorite and that’s how this baby was born.
So this weekend take a warm piece of sourdough bread glazed with Parmesan and garlic butter, oozing with melted cheese and pepperoni, and dip it in warm pizza sauce! Yum!

Bloomin’ Pizza Bread
Pizza pull apart bread is a great appetizer or quick dinner.
Ingredients
- 1 unsliced round loaf sourdough bread
- 12-16 ounces mozzarella or Provolone cheese thinly sliced
- 1 (3.5 ounce package) pepperoni, halved
- 3 Tablespoons butter melted
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasonings
- 2 Tablespoons Parmesan cheese
- pizza/marinara sauce for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Cut the bread lengthwise and widthwise without cutting through the bottom crust. This can be a little tricky going the second way but the bread is very forgiving.
- Place bread on a foil-lined baking sheet and insert cheese slices and pepperoni between cuts. Combine butter, garlic powder, and Italian seasonings. Drizzle or brush over bread with a pastry brush. Sprinkle bread with Parmesan cheese.
- Wrap bread completely in foil and bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. Unwrap the bread and bake 10 more minutes, or until cheese is melted and pepperoni is a little crispy.

It was a great price of pizza 😊
Thank you!
Might have to try this for the next carry-in.
We made this last night, except we made big cuts in the bread so they were big pieces instead of little ones- it was so tasty! A little jarred sauce to go with it and it was gone in minutes! I’m officially in love with your recipes and your website! Thank you!
Thank you! I’m so glad you enjoyed it.
ummm… my question sounds a bit stupid but can I use any kind of bread for this recipe?
I really love the texture and taste of a sourdough round bread here but you can use any kind. Sourdough is easier to cut.
I think using sharp cheddar and some Jalapenos or Chipotle would taste AWESOME!!!
I love this idea! I have a bag of mini pepperoni in the fridge that will be perfect for this!
How come I can’t seem to add this to my recipe box? I have made this twice now, to rave reviews both time!
Not all of the recipes have been tranferred over to Ziplist. I have a ton of recipes and am slowing formatting them into the ziplist format. Thanks for your patience.
I found the recipe from the bloomin’ onion bread recipe on recipelion.com. These look absolutely delicious and all the ideas that are in the comments sound wonderful as well. You now have a new follower. I will be lost in your recipes for hours for days!
@Anonymous (the very critical Anonymous):
While I’m sure that your critique and suggestions were taken with the highest regard, I’d like to take this opportunity to point out the glaring comma splice that appears mid-rant in your comment.
Those who live in glass houses should not cast stones.
This is a fantastic recipe and my ‘pepperonis’ turned out wonderfully! I prefer to bake it covered so the cheese is gooey and the bread doesn’t dry out. A suggestion for everyone; buy your bread in the early morning from the bakery so it hasn’t had the full day to dry out.
Happy baking!
i made the bloomin pizza bread and the bloomin onion bread and did a plain bloomin cheese bread tonight as had family round for tea and it was a brilliant success and they all coming for a bbq in week so have placed orders for the breads to be made to go with it so thanku for a wonderful meal and i will be trying ur other recipes for the deserts very soon x
This looks so amazing!!!!
I love this recipe, as well as the Blooming Onion!!! Thank you so much!
I am compelled to comment about the spelling, grammar, and related issues. We all make mistakes. Most of us, I would like to think, appreciate a heads up. It is better to be corrected and to do something about it than to present our work as if we are in 2nd. grade. A little thicker skin might help some, but accepting the reality of a human being human is best!!!
Delicious! I used my favorite garlic butter combo to brush over the bread. Perfect with pizza sauce.
Brilliant site! Everything here makes my mouth water. Thank you so very much for sharing!
I found this on pinterest too, and had to try it! It was great, and I can’t wait to try and see how it would be as a bbq chicken bloomin’ pizza! Yummy!
@Anonymous: Wow! Why don’t you make a little return to grammar school? It appears as though you may need to revisit your seventh grade comma lessons as clearly you do not understand its usage. If you did understand it, you would not have placed a comma after “words.” Additionally, the comma you placed should only be used when joining to complete sentences with a joining word. Please also refresh yourself on “proofread.” According to Webster, there is no hyphen (http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/proofreading).
Goodness ~ this looks so delish!! I can’t wait to try it; I know my hubby will love it!! 🙂 Thanks so much for sharing; I am so excited to have found your blog and have already found several recipes I want to try. I shared this recipe on my blog with a little shout out to you. 🙂

I just made this for a football game. My guinea pigs were very happy with it. It wasn’t as pretty as yours but it tasted quite good! Thanks so much!
I also found it on Pinterest, made it, and LOVED it!
Here is my post about it:

Saw this one on Pinterest! I have to make it for our party tomorrow. I am in charge of the bread!
This looks like a great appetizer or light meal! LOve it!
Keep all the ‘bloomin bread’ variations coming, I love it!!!!
Love it! I think I will try it with my Fast Easy Bread Italian Bread recipe and see what it tastes like. Maybe a spinach/artichoke spread inserted into the bread and then lots of yummy cheese would be good too! Thanks Christy! Your blog fan for life no matter the grammatical errors!
