Ingredients:
1/3 c. olive oil
1 tsp. Italian seasoning
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
2 cans (16.3 oz. each) large refrigerated flaky biscuits
2 c. (8 oz.) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
20 slices pepperoni, sliced in half
1/2 c. marinara sauce
Additional marinara sauce, warmed

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  In a microwave-safe bowl, mix oil, Italian seasoning, garlic and pepper flakes; microwave, covered, on high for 30 seconds.  Uncover and cool slightly.  Cut each biscuit into 4 pieces; transfer to oil mixture and toss to coat.  Stir in cheese and pepperoni.

In a greased 10 inch fluted tube pan, layer half of of the biscuit mixture; drizzle with 1/4 c. marinara sauce.  Repeat layers.  Bake 40 minutes or until golden brown.

Cool in pan for 10 minutes.  Run a knife around sides and center tube of pan.  Invert onto a serving plate.  Serve with additional marinara sauce.
