Preheat your jaffle maker (also known as a sandwich press or pie iron) according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Spread 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce evenly over one side of each slice of bread.
Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella cheese onto one slice of bread on top of the pizza sauce.
Layer the pepperoni slices, cooked mushrooms, and diced green bell pepper on top of the cheese.
Sprinkle the remaining shredded mozzarella cheese over the toppings and finish with a pinch of dried oregano for added pizza flavor.
Place the second slice of bread on top, with the pizza sauce facing inward, to create a sandwich.
Lightly butter the outside of both slices of bread to achieve a golden, crispy finish when toasted.
Place the sandwich in the preheated jaffle maker and close the lid. Toast for 3-5 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Carefully remove the pizza jaffle from the jaffle maker using a spatula or tongs. Allow it to cool for 1-2 minutes before slicing in half or quarters.
Serve immediately and enjoy your cheesy, pizza-flavored jaffle!
