These pizza puffs are one of those recipes that make school-week prep so much easier! They’re cheesy, packed with pepperoni and pizza flavor, and easy for little hands to grab and eat. I love making a batch ahead of time so we have an easy breakfast, lunchbox addition, or after-school snack ready to go. They come together quickly, store well, and, most importantly, my kids actually eat them! 

Pizza Puffs

Ingredients:

  • 1 can of premade pizza dough- I used pillsbury
  • 1 ½ cups marinara of choice
  • 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup finely chopped turkey pepperonis- I use applegate
  • 1 large carrot diced finely- I use a veggie chopper
  • Ranch seasoning, or ranch dressing

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees and spray a muffin tin with olive oil cooking spray
  2. Roll out pizza dough on a lightly floured surface
  3. Spread marinara on top of the dough
  4. Sprinkle with cheese, pepperonis and carrots
  5. Roll dough from the longest end and then cut into one inch circles
  6. Place one circle in each muffin tin.
  7. Bake for 12 minutes on the center wrack. Let cool before removing from the pan.
  8. These freeze great, and are delish at room temperature, or reheated!
