Butter a muffin pan for six servings.

Place six frozen dinner roll dough balls into the muffin pan.

Cover the dough with cling film and let them thaw and proof.

Once thawed, press down in the center of each dough ball with a buttered measuring glass to create a well.

Use hands to create sides for the wells in the dough.

Add a little shredded mozzarella cheese to the bottom of each well.

Spoon in a couple of teaspoons of pizza sauce into each well.

Add cut turkey pepperoni slices on top of the sauce.

Top with more shredded mozzarella cheese.

Sprinkle the chicken vegetable seasoning and Italian herb blend seasoning over the top.

If desired, add an extra slice of pepperoni on top of some puffs.

Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F for about 15 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.

Top with dried parsley or extra seasoning before serving.
