Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 14.5 oz can fire roasted tomatoes
- 6 oz can tomato paste
- 5 sprigs rosemary
- 10 sprigs thyme
- 5 oz link dried pepperoni (chopped)
- 8 oz package shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup chopped parsley
- salt and pepper
- 1 batch puff pastry
- 1 egg (beaten)
Instruction
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Puree the fire roasted tomatoes and tomato paste in food processor or blender until smooth. Place the tomatoes in a saucepan, add the rosemary and thyme, and cook over medium heat for 10 minutes, stirring frequently. This will give the herbs time to infuse the tomato sauce with their flavor.
- Turn the heat off and add the chopped pepperoni, mozzarella cheese, and parsley. Stir it all together and taste for seasoning. Add salt and pepper as needed.
- Roll out the puff pastry and cut rectangles from the dough with a knife or pizza cutter, and place a spoonful of the pepperoni pizza sauce on one side of the puff pastry.
- Dip your finger in the beaten egg and line one side of the rectangle, and fold the puff pastry square over so it creates a pocket.
- Crimp the edges with a fork, and place the pizza pocket on a sheet pan.
- Repeat with the remaining puff pastry and pizza sauce, then brush all the tops with egg wash.
- Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes until the puff pastry is golden brown and puffed. Serve the pizza puffs while hot. Enjoy!
