Pizza Waffles
Description
The process begins with room-temperature pizza dough divided into small rounds roughly 8 inches across. Each round is brushed with oil and placed oiled-side down in a preheated waffle iron. A layer of tomato sauce, shredded mozzarella cheese, and sliced pepperoni is added, then topped with another dough layer brushed with oil. After cooking for about 6 to 8 minutes, the waffle develops a crispy, golden exterior that encases a bubbling, cheesy filling. Optional fresh basil adds a bright note on serving.
Ingredients
- 1 batch pizza dough everyday style
Filling:
- 125 ml tomato sauce
- 85 g mozzarella cheese shredded
- 48 pcs (135g) pepperoni sliced
- cooking oil for greasing waffle iron and brushing on dough
Garnish:
- basil optional
Instructions
- Remove pizza dough from refrigerator about 2 hours ahead of time (to let the dough come to room temperature), unless making fresh pizza dough.
- Preheat waffle iron to medium high heat.
- Divide pizza dough into 8 small pieces (first divide in half, and then each piece into quarters). Flatten out and shape into approximately 8" in diameter. (Keep in mind the dough will expand a little while cooking).
- Brush a little bit of oil on one side of the dough and place the oiled side down into the waffle maker. Or you can spray a little oil on the waffle iron.
- Working quickly, top with 2 tablespoon of tomato sauce, shredded mozzarella cheese, and sliced pepperoni.
- Place another mound of dough on top and brush the surface with oil before closing the waffle maker.
- Cook for 6-8 minutes until crisp and bubbly.
- Remove and let cool on a cooling rack.
- Sprinkle with fresh basil and serve hot with marinara sauce.
