Description

Directions

• Preheat oven to 400 F.
• Grease a 10-inch cast iron skillet with 1 teaspoon olive oil. 
• In a small bowl, stir together remaining tablespoon olive oil, garlic, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder. Set aside.
• Divide pizza dough into 30 pieces. Each piece will be small. 
• Shape each piece into a ball, and lightly coat with olive oil mixture.
• Place 18 dough balls around the outside edge of the prepared skillet.
• Top with remaining 12 dough balls, staggering dough at the seams.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until dough is just beginning to lightly brown.
• While dough is baking, stir ricotta and 2 tablespoons parmesan together in a small bowl.
• Spread ricotta mixture in the opening in the middle of the skillet.
• Top with pizza sauce and then pepperoni.
• Sprinkle mozzarella and remaining 2 tablespoons parmesan over the top. Its ok if some of the cheese ends up on the garlic bread pieces.
• Return to the oven, and continue baking for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until cheese has melted.
• Let cool 10 minutes. Serve warm from the skillet.
