- 2 tbsp melted butter
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- Marinara sauce for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a bundt pan or a round baking dish with cooking spray.
- Prepare the Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle. Cut the dough into small squares, about 1-2 inches each.

- Arrange in the Pan: Place the filled dough pieces in the greased bundt pan or baking dish.
- Mix the Butter and Spices: In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, garlic powder, and dried oregano. Pour this mixture over the arranged dough pieces.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Allow the Pull-Apart Pizza Bread to cool for a few minutes before inverting it onto a serving plate. Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping and enjoy!
