Easy cheesy pull apart pizza bread uses refrigerated biscuits to create a deliciously fun appetizer, snack, or easy dinner!
A Fun Way to Eat Pizza!
We first tried this pull apart pizza bread at a friend’s house and were immediately hooked!!! It’s such a FUN way to eat pizza. The kids love to pull and dip – who wouldn’t?!
Pull-apart pizza is soft and fluffy, filled with cheese and pepperoni, and perfect dipped in a Marinara Sauce or even Homemade Ranch! You can easily add your favorite toppings too (sometimes we add olives, peppers or other meats).
Better yet, there are just a handful of ready-made ingredients and it’s prepped in MINUTES making it not only a tasty appetizer but an easy main dish!
WHY WE LOVE IT:
- Have it your way. Easily add your favorite toppings or remove the pepperoni to make a cheese-only version. The possibilities are endless!
- 4 main ingredients. We used ready-made biscuits and Pizza Sauce to keep things extra simple.
- FUN to eat! Get that yummy cheese pull every time – who says you can’t have fun with your food?

How to Make Pull Apart Pizza Bread
- PREP. Preheat oven to 350°F.
- ASSEMBLE. In a large bowl, add ½ cup melted butter, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1 tablespoon pizza seasoning and mix well.
- Add cut-up biscuit pieces from 2 cans of biscuit dough, 1 cup of pepperoni slices, and 2-2 ½ cups of shredded mozzarella. Mix to combine until all the cubes are coated with the garlic butter.
- Place a ramekin sprayed with cooking spray upside down in the middle of a greased 10-inch springform pan. Place biscuit mixture into prepared pan surrounding ramekin.
- BAKE. Tent pan with aluminum foil and bake for 40-45 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes.
- Release the springform cake pan, flip the ramekin over, and fill it with dipping sauce. Serve warm.
Use a Different Pan
Use a 9 in x 2.75 in round cake pan. Line the Pan with Parchment Paper before filling. You can also use a bundt pan or a flute pan, and serve the dipping sauce on the side instead of the center.
