Serves: 8 Prep: 20 minutes Cook: 20 mins
ingredients
- 450g pre-made pizza dough
- Egg wash (1 egg whisked with 1 tbsp water)
- 7 mozzarella balls
- 60ml melted butter
- 1 tbsp thinly sliced basil
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary
- Biona Chopped Tomatoes(for the dip)
- Biona Organic Green Pesto
Directions
- Preheat oven to 220 degrees-Celsius. Then, line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut mozzarella balls into 1” pieces and set aside.
- On a floured surface, divide pizza dough into two pieces. Stretch and roll each piece of dough into a long rectangle, then cut dough into 2” squares (you’ll need 33 total).
- Wrap a dough square around each piece of mozzarella, forming a tightly sealed ball. Place balls seam-side down on the baking sheet in the shape of a Christmas tree (they should be touching). Brush egg wash on dough balls and bake until golden, 15 to 20 minutes.
- In the meantime, whisk together melted butter and Biona green pesto and brush on baked pizza balls. Serve with Biona chopped tomatoes for dipping. Enjoy!
