Here’s a fun and easy recipe for Sausage & Pepperoni Pizza Puffs—crispy, cheesy, and packed with classic pizza flavors:
🍕 Sausage & Pepperoni Pizza Puffs
🧾 Ingredients
- 1 package refrigerated biscuit dough or pizza dough
- 100–150 g (3–5 oz) cooked Italian sausage, crumbled
- 50–75 g (2–3 oz) pepperoni, chopped or sliced
- 1–1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- ¼ cup pizza sauce (plus extra for dipping)
- ½ tsp Italian seasoning (optional)
🔪 Instructions
1. Preheat oven
- Oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare dough
- Separate biscuit dough into pieces, or roll pizza dough into small squares (about 3–4 inches).
3. Assemble pizza puffs
- Place a small spoonful of pizza sauce in the center of each dough piece.
- Add cooked sausage, pepperoni, and shredded mozzarella.
- Sprinkle a little Italian seasoning if desired.
- Fold dough over filling and pinch edges tightly to seal.
4. Bake
- Place puffs seam-side down on the baking sheet.
- Bake 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
5. Serve
- Let cool slightly. Serve with extra pizza sauce for dipping.
🍽️ Tips
- Don’t overfill dough—too much filling can cause leaks.
- Brush puffs with a little olive oil or melted butter for extra golden color.
- Add veggies like bell peppers, onions, or mushrooms for variety.
- Make them ahead and freeze; bake straight from the freezer adding a few extra minutes.
If you want, I can give a mini muffin tin version for perfectly uniform, bite-sized pizza puffs that are ideal for parties or snacks.
Do you want me to give that version?
