Bloomin’ Pizza Bread
Pizza pull apart bread is a great appetizer or quick dinner.
Ingredients
- 1 unsliced round loaf sourdough bread
- 12-16 ounces thinly sliced mozzarella or Provolone cheese, (you can also use shredded cheese but it's messier)
- 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 5-10 more minutes, or until cheese is melted and pepperoni is a little crispy.
