Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1/2 cup pepperoni
  • 1 1/2 cups bocconcini cheese drained and patted dry
  • 1/4 cup baking soda
  • 1 egg whisked
  • coarse salt
  • 3/4 cup marinara for dipping

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 415F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • On a floured surface, roll out pizza dough into a large rectangle. Using a pizza cutter, divide the dough into 2x2 inch squares. This resulted in about 24 squares but may vary depending on the quantity of dough you use.
  • Press each square down to flatten a bit more and then place a couple slices of pepperoni and a bocconcini ball into the center of the square. Fold the corners of the dough over the pepperoni and cheese and seal tightly.
  • Bring 8 cups of water to a boil in a large pot. Carefully add the baking soda and stir to combine. Working in batches, drop the pretzel bites into the water and boil for about 2 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon.
  • Arrange pretzel bites onto the baking sheet. Brush with the egg and sprinkle each with coarse salt. Bake for approximately 15-18 minutes or until they turn golden brown. Serve with marinara dipping sauce.
