Instructions

  1. 1 Mix flour and yogurt together in a large bowl until it forms a ball. Transfer to a lightly floured work surface and knead until smooth, adding more flour as necessary to keep dough from sticking, 2 to 3 minutes.
  2. 2 Roll out dough into a 10x14-inch rectangle. Spread with pizza sauce. Cover with pepperoni and sprinkle with cheese, leaving a 1-inch border bare on one long edge of the rectangle so dough can be sealed once it's rolled up.
  3. 3 Roll up rectangle starting from one long end and seal roll by brushing a bit of water on the inner edge of the dough. Place roll on a sheet of parchment paper and freeze to firm up and make the roll easier to cut, 15 to 20 minutes.
  4. 4 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  5. 5 Slice roll into 1-inch pieces and place on the prepared baking sheet 2 inches apart, reshaping rolls if needed. Brush tops with butter and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

  4. 4 Wrap the towel around cauliflower and squeeze out as much liquid as possible; the drier, the better.
  5. 5 Combine squeezed cauliflower, 1 cup mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder in a large bowl until well combined. Scoop evenly into the prepared muffin cups. Pat down cauliflower mixture with the back of a spoon, making it compact.
  6. 6 Bake in the preheated oven until crust is golden brown, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and spoon pizza sauce evenly onto each crust. Top with remaining 1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese.
  7. 7 Return to the oven and bake until cheese is melted and golden brown, about 15 minutes. Let pizza bites sit in the pan for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes. Remove parchment paper from the bottoms and arrange bites on a platter.
