- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Open the can of refrigerated pizza dough and unroll it onto a clean surface.
- Cut the pizza dough into squares, about 2 inches on each side.

- Place a slice or two of pepperoni on top of the cheese.
- Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the pepperoni and mozzarella.
- Dust with garlic powder and dried oregano.
- Fold the corners of each dough square towards the center to seal the filling inside.

Notes
For an extra crispy texture, add cornmeal to the baking sheet. Experiment with different fillings to customize your pizza bombs.
