Ingredients
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter very soft
• 1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp dried Italian seasoning
• 8 slices white bread
• 12 slices mozzarella cheese
• 6 oz pepperoni about 24 slices
• warm pizza sauce for dipping
Instructions
1. In a medium bowl, mix softened butter, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning until smooth and well combined.
2. Evenly coat one side of each bread slice with the butter mixture. Arrange the slices butter side up on a sheet tray for easy assembly.
3. Place a buttered slice of bread, butter side down, in a skillet over medium-low heat. Layer with a slice of mozzarella, followed by 6 slices of pepperoni, another slice of mozzarella, 6 more pepperoni slices, and a final slice of mozzarella. Top with another buttered slice, butter side up, and press gently.
4. Cook for 3-5 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and crispy. Flip with a spatula and cook the other side until golden and the cheese is melted. If needed, reduce the heat and cover briefly to melt the cheese.
5. Remove from the skillet, cut in half, and serve with warm pizza sauce on the side for dipping.
Notes
For extra flavor, try adding a few fresh basil leaves along with the pepperoni, or sprinkle a little red pepper flakes for heat!
