Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 6 slices bacon, cooked and chopped
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, cubed or shredded
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough or pizza dough
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp melted butter
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until browned. Drain excess fat and let the beef cool slightly.
- Flatten each piece of dough into a circle. Add a spoonful of beef, some chopped bacon, and cheese in the center.
- Fold dough over the filling and pinch to seal, forming a ball. Place seam-side down on the baking sheet.
- Brush each ball with melted butter and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
- Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Garnish with parsley if desired and serve warm.
Notes
- Try different cheeses like mozzarella, pepper jack, or gouda for variety.
- Add veggies like mushrooms, onions, or pickles for extra flavor.
- Make mini versions for party appetizers.
- Use sausage instead of beef for a breakfast version.
- To reheat, use an oven to maintain crispiness.
