Ingredients
For the Filling
- 1 lb (450 g) ground beef (80/20 recommended)
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp ground black pepper
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 cup (113 g) shredded cheddar or mozzarella
- Optional: ¼ cup chopped dill pickles or ½ cup diced caramelized onions
For the Dough
- 1 tube refrigerated biscuit dough (8–12 pieces) or 1 sheet pizza dough (250 g), cut into rounds
For the Garlic Parmesan Topping
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp minced garlic or ½ tsp garlic powder
- 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tbsp chopped parsley (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cook ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat until browned; drain fat. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Remove from heat and cool for 5 minutes. Stir in shredded cheese and optional fillings.
- Flatten each dough piece into a 3–4 inch round. Place 1–2 tbsp of filling in the center. Pinch edges to seal and roll into a ball. Place seam-side down on prepared baking sheet.
- Mix melted butter with garlic. Brush over dough balls. Sprinkle with Parmesan.
- Bake 15–18 minutes or until golden brown. Brush with remaining garlic butter and sprinkle parsley if using. Cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Let beef cool before adding cheese to avoid premature melting.
- Seal edges tightly to prevent leaking while baking.
- Use air fryer for crisp reheating: 375°F for 3–4 minutes.
