Ingredients You’ll Need

For the Waffles:

1 tube refrigerated pizza dough (or crescent roll dough)

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
½ cup mini pepperoni (or chopped regular pepperoni)
¼ cup pizza sauce (plus more for dipping)

2 tablespoons grated parmesan (optional)
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Cooking spray or melted butter (for waffle iron)

Bell peppers, mushrooms, or olives (chopped small)

How to Make Pizza Stuffed Waffle Snacks

Step 1: Preheat & Prep

Preheat your waffle iron and spray it with nonstick spray or brush with butter.

Roll out the pizza dough and cut into rectangles about the size of your waffle iron sections.

Step 2: Fill & Fold

On one half of each dough rectangle, spread a spoonful of sauce.
Add shredded cheese, pepperoni, and any additional toppings.

Fold the dough over to seal the filling inside (like a pocket).

Step 3: Cook

Place the dough pockets in the waffle iron and cook until golden brown and crisp—about 3–5 minutes.
Carefully remove and let cool slightly.

Step 4: Serve

Cut into halves or serve whole with extra pizza sauce for dipping.

Storage & Reheating

Store in the fridge for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
Reheat in the oven or air fryer at 350°F for 5–7 minutes to maintain crispiness.

Freeze individually wrapped for quick snacks later.

Tips & Variations

Use crescent dough for a lighter, flakier texture.
Try breakfast-style with scrambled eggs, sausage, and cheddar cheese.

Go vegetarian with mushrooms, spinach, and olives.
