Homemade Pull Apart Pizza Bread is like a Pizza Version of Monkey Bread. This cheesy, crispy, fluffy pizza bread is a perfect party appetizer.

Pizza Bread

pizza dough

olive oil (divided)

garlic powder (divided)

red pepper flakes

Italian Seasoning

mozzarella cheese

Parmesan cheese (freshly grated)

Marinara sauce (for serving)

Combine

Combine olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder in small bowl.

Grease

Grease a bundt pan or 9x13 baking dish and a large mixing bowl with the olive oil mixture, reserving about 1 tablespoon of the mixture.

Cut Dough

Lightly flour a cutting board or working surface. Roll the dough out into a 12 inch by 9 inch rectangle--or something of that nature. Cut into 1 inch cubes.

Grease a large mixing bowl with olive oil. Add the dough cubes, mozzarella, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasonings, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, crushed red pepper flakes, a small pinch of salt, and up to 1 cup of pizza toppings of your choice. Toss to evenly distribute ingredients.

Aseemble

Spread the dough mixture evenly in the bundt pan or baking dish and brush the remaining olive oil evenly over the top of the dough.

Rest

Cover the bundt pan with a towel and let the dough rest while the oven heats to 350 degrees Farenheit.

Bake

Bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes if using a bundt pan, or 15-20 minutes if using a baking dish, until bread is cooked through and golden brown. Check the pizza bread halfway through cooking. If you notice the top is browning before the dough is cooked through, cover with foil for the remaining of the bake time. 

Serve

Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minute in pan. Serve right from baking dish, or if a bundt pan was used, carefully remove the pizza bread from the bundt pan, using a knife to loosen from the sides of the pan if needed. Invert the bread and serve with pizza sauce or marinara sauce.

active dry yeast

water

sugar

bread flour

all purpose flour

salt

butter (melted)

Parmesan or Pecorino Cheese (grated)

parsley (chopped)

scallions (chopped)

basil leaves (chopped)

garlic (minced)

salt and black pepper

marinara or pizza sauce

In a medium bowl, combine the bread flour, all purpose flour and salt. Set aside.

Combine the active yeast and water in a mixing bowl fitted with a dough hook. Let it sit for a few minutes to make sure your yeast is working. Add the sugar and mix for a quick second. Add the flour mixture in batches, scraping down the sides of the bowl. Let the dough hook work its magic for 5-6 minutes until the dough has come together into a large mass. Remove the dough to an oiled bowl and let rise for 60 minutes.

After an hour, remove the dough from the bowl and cut into small 1/2 inch cubes. Dust with flour to prevent them from sticking together. Set aside.

Butter and flour 6 small bundt pans. (You could also use a large bundt pan)

Melt the butter in a small bowl.

Combine the cheese, herbs, salt/pepper and garlic in a large bowl. Add the melted butter and mix together with a spoon. Toss in the cut dough and make sure it all gets a coat of the butter mixture. Start layering the cubes into the bundt pans until they are 3/4 of the way full. Let sit for 30 minutes for the dough to rise a little more and while they are rising, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
