Pro Tips for Perfect Pizza Stuffed Waffle Snacks
Seal every edge firmly to trap steam and keep cheese from escaping.
For extra crunch, brush dough tops with garlic-herb butter before closing the iron.
Feeling adventurous? Tuck in a tablespoon of ricotta for lasagna-like creaminess.
Storing & Reheating Pizza Stuffed Waffle Snacks
Cool waffles completely, then refrigerate in an airtight container up to 3 days.
Rewarm in a 180 °C (350 °F) oven for 6-8 minutes to restore crispness.
Freeze up to 2 months reheat from frozen for about 12 minutes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use homemade pizza dough?
Yes, roll it thin so it cooks through in five minutes.
What if I don’t own a waffle iron?
Press the sealed packets in a hot skillet, weighting them with another pan, and cook until both sides are golden.
Do I have to spray a non-stick iron?
A light mist of oil ensures easy release and deeper browning, even on non-stick plates.
How do I make them vegetarian?
Swap pepperoni for sliced olives, mushrooms, or roasted peppers; keep total filling to about ⅓ cup per waffle.
