Ingredients

Servings
  • 1/4 cup butter softened
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons Parmesan Cheese finely grated
  • 8 lices bread
  • 6-8 mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce
  • 2 oz pepperoni slices

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, stir the butter to soften it and smooth it out. Add the Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and parmesan cheese. Stir to combine.
  2. Spread the butter mixture on one side of each slice of bread. Place the bread butter side down on a cutting board.
  3. Divide the pizza sauce evenly, spreading on the sides of the bread without the butter. Top each piece with cheese. Divide the pepperoni between 4 of the slices, then carefully turn the sides without the pepperoni on them over to create 4 sandwiches with the butter on the outsides.
  4. Heat a large skillet over medium low heat and add as many sandwiches as will fit. (I usually can fit 3 in a 12-inch skillet.) Cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 4 minutes, then carefully flip and cook the second side. If needed, place a lid on the pan so that the cheese will melt.
  5. Serve the sandwiches warm.

Notes

  • These are best served right after making, but if you do have leftovers, I suggest reheating on the stove in a covered skillet or in an air fryer.
  • Feel free to change it up and use your favorite pizza toppings, or even leave the pepperoni out and have just a cheese pizza grilled cheese!
