Ingredients

  • 1 pound refrigerated pizza dough
  • egg wash (1 egg whisked with 1 tablespoon water)
  • 7 mozzarella sticks
  • 3 tablespoons Fustini's Tuscan Herb olive oil
  • 1/2 cup finely grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon thinly sliced fresh basil
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
  • Fustini's Pyramid Flake Salt
  • marinara sauce for serving

Hint

A great recipe to substitute with other Fustini's herb-infused olive oils. Adapted from delish.com


Directions

Step 1. 

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.  Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.  Cut mozzarella sticks into 1" pieces and set aside.


Step 2. 

On a floured surface, divide pizza dough into two pieces.  Stretch and roll each piece of dough into a long rectangle, then cut into 2 inch squares (you will need 33 pieces total)


Step 3. 

Wrap a dough square around each piece of mozzarella, forming a tightly sealed ball.  Place balls seam-side down on the baking sheet in the shape of a Christmas tree (they should be touching).  Brush egg wash on each dough ball and bake until golden, 15-20 minutes.


Step 4. 

Meanwhile, whisk together olive oil, Parmesan and herbs.  Brush on baked pizza balls.  Serve warm with marinara for dipping.
