Now that fall is here, so is football! I’m not one to follow a specific team, but I do love watching the game.
It brings me back to those late nights as a kid, sitting around with my crazy pumped up family, eating yummy finger foods while they shouted at the television. Or one another.
These parmesan pepperoni pizza sticks are delicious! So perfect for those crisp autumn evenings when you’re watching the game by yourself or with a group. Bonus: it takes only 15 minutes to make 4!!
Pepperoni Pizza Sticks Recipe
Ingredients
- Slices of bread (I used wheat, which made the sticks a bit healthier)
- Sliced pepperoni
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup Parmesan & Romano cheese (you can also use just Parmesan)
- 1/2 cup milk, buttermilk or cream
Directions
Take a slice of bread. Using a shape knife, trim off the crust from all four sides.
Using a rolling pin, flatten the bread until it is almost paper thin. Be gentle so the bread doesn’t crumble.
Set out the rest of the ingredients in a small assembly line. Lay down a flattened bread slice. Sprinkle a generous amount of mozzarella cheese. Place a few pieces of pepperoni on top. Try not to overfill or the contents will easily fall out during the next step.
Roll up the pizza stick tight. Dip into the milk and sprinkle a heavy amount of Parmesan cheese on top.
Heat up about 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a pan and fry each pizza stick. Keep turning when the sides are a toasted brown. Allow to dry on a paper towel to drain the oil. Top with another sprinkle of Parmesan.
Serve your pizza sticks with a side of yummy marinara or pizza sauce. So good!
