These Pizza Waffles are another great way to include my kids in the kitchen. I love to encourage them to take an interest in cooking and to be experimental with food. This recipe is so much fun as they can make “pizzas” without turning on the oven so I don’t need to worry about them burning themselves.
Start by dividing pizza dough into 8 equal pieces and flatten them into a circle. Place 4 of the dough circles on a preheated waffle iron and top with marinara sauce, shredded mozzarella and pepperoni. Seal the pizzas with the remaining dough circles and close the waffle maker. Cook until the dough is golden brown. Enjoy with extra marinara sauce for dipping.
