Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Pizza dough
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup Pepperoni slices (or toppings of your choice)
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup Marinara sauce (for dipping)
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions and lightly grease it with cooking spray or a small amount of olive oil.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to about 1/4-inch thickness. Cut it into even rectangles, about the size of your waffle iron sections.
Sprinkle one rectangle of dough with a layer of mozzarella cheese, a few pepperoni slices (or your preferred toppings), and a small pinch of Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle a dash of Italian seasoning over the fillings.
Place another rectangle of dough over the fillings to create a 'sandwich' and press the edges together to seal. Repeat with the remaining dough and fillings.
Brush the top side of each dough pocket with olive oil and place it into the preheated waffle iron, oiled side down. Brush the top side with more olive oil before closing the waffle iron.
Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the dough is golden-brown and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining dough pockets.
Cut the waffled pizza pockets into strips for easy dipping, or leave them whole if desired.
Serve warm with marinara sauce on the side for dipping. Enjoy!
