Make the Garlic Butter
1

a) Preheat your oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas mark 6.

b) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

c) Roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all).

d) In a small saucepan on medium heat, combine the butter and garlic until the butter has melted, 1-2 mins. Season generously with salt and pepper, then set aside for now.

Roll the Dough
2

a) Divide the pizza dough into 15-20 pieces and roll each into a ball.

b) Pop the garlic butter into a large bowl, then mix in three quarters of the parsley.

c) Carefully add the dough balls to the bowl and toss to coat them in the garlic butter, then pop into a lined 20cm round baking tin in a single layer. TIP: The dough balls should be snug in the tin.

d) Pour over any remaining garlic butter, then sprinkle over the grated hard Italian style cheese. Pop into the oven until risen and golden, 24-26 mins.

Make the Dip and Serve
3

a) While the dough balls bake, combine in a small bowl the pesto and mayonnaise.

b) Once baked, allow the dough balls to cool slightly before removing from the tin without breaking them apart. Place onto a serving board to tear and share.

c) Sprinkle over the remaining parsley and serve the pesto mayo alongside for dipping.

Enjoy!

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Some found the dough balls lacking in cheese and garlic flavour; consider increasing these ingredients for a more robust taste.
  • Ease of prep: Preparation can be time-consuming; allow ample time when planning to make this dish.
  • Suggestions: Bake the dough balls longer for a less doughy texture, and watch the cheese topping to prevent over-crisping.
