  2. Roll Out the Dough: Roll the risen dough to 1/2 inch thick and slice into 3cm squares.
  3. Assemble the Filling: Place a slice of pepperoni and mozzarella in the center of each dough square. Fold corners over filling to create balls.
  4. Flavor the Balls: Mix melted butter, minced garlic, and oregano. Dip each dough ball into the mixture.
  5. Arrange in Baking Dish: Grease a dish, place the dough balls closely together, pour leftover butter mixture over, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  6. Bake to Perfection: Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  7. Cool and Serve: Let cool for about 5 minutes, serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping.
