_Sips coffee_ Ladies and gentlemen, let me tell you about a snack that’s about to change your late-night munchies game forever! As someone who’s notorious for raiding the kitchen at midnight, I’ve perfected what I call my “Loaded Pizza Pull-Apart Bread Bites.” Trust me, this isn’t your basic microwave popcorn situation – this is what dreams are made of!
You’ll need:
– 1 large French bread loaf
– 2 cups shredded mozzarella
– 1 cup pepperoni, chopped
– 1/2 cup melted butter
– 3 cloves minced garlic
– 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
– 1/4 cup grated Parmesan
– Marinara sauce for dipping
Okay honey, let’s get cooking! First, preheat that oven to 375°F (because we’re fancy like that). Take your bread and make cross-cuts about 1 inch apart – but don’t cut all the way through! We want it looking like a fancy accordion, not bread confetti. 😉
Mix that melted butter with garlic and Italian seasoning. Now, get your hands dirty! Stuff those cuts with mozzarella and pepperoni pieces. Don’t be shy – really get in there! Drizzle that garlic butter mixture ALL over. I mean it, every single crevice should be glistening!

Wrap the whole thing in foil and pop it in the oven for 15 minutes. Then unwrap the top and bake for another 10 minutes until it’s golden and bubbly. Sprinkle with Parmesan because, honestly, when has extra cheese ever been a bad idea?
The result? Heavenly, pull-apart perfection that’s crispy on the outside, gooey on the inside, and absolutely addictive. It’s perfect for movie nights, game days, or just because it’s Tuesday and you deserve something amazing!
Real talk: I made this for my last girls’ night, and Sarah (you know, the one who’s usually on that eternal diet) ate half of it herself! No judgment here, girl – we’ve all been there!
