Stuffed Pizza Biscuits might just be the perfect and versatile food for after-school snacks, or to serve for the big game. The familiar pizza flavors delivered in a different way are always a hit with everyone that tries them! This is also a fun project to teach your kids that cooking doesn’t have to be complicated to make a yummy treat.

Let’s Prep:

This is a super easy recipe to make and the first step in the process is probably the most important. Make sure that if you’re cooking with your kids, that you are the one making the initial cut. The thing you’ll want to be mindful of is that you’re making a flat horizontal cut through he middle of your premade biscuit dough. After that, it’s easy from there! You can check the video below to see what I mean.   

Once you make your horizontal cut, add your cheese, and seal up the biscuit – it’ll look similar to the below. Believe it or not, it’ll smash down nearly completely flat as the cheese absorbs into the biscuit dough leading to that HUGE cheesy pull when they are done baking.

Let’s Bake:

PRO Tip: Once you’ve gotten your dough flattened and stuffed, immediately move to your baking sheet and build the rest of the pizza biscuit there. It’ll make it much easier than trying to move it once you’ve gotten your toppings on it. You can use whatever toppings you like with these – the sky is the limit! Just make sure that if you’re deviating from the recipe that you’re ingredients are fully cooked before eating them.  

Let’s Eat:

Once they stuffed pizza biscuits are done baking, immediately take them out of the oven and place on a plate or wire cooling rack to stop the cooking. Without doing this the bottoms of the biscuits could overcook, making them too crispy, or even worse burnt. Let them cool for about 5 minutes before serving.

  • 32 slices Pepperoni (1) 6 oz package from grocery store

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  • Laying the dough on your clean workspace, carefully make a horizontal slice to butterfly it, open up so you have 2 parts that are still connected
  • Place a 3-finger pinch of shredded mozzarella cheese in between the layers of the biscuit.
  • Fold the top part of the biscuit back over the cheese, creating a sandwich, and then seal the biscuit pinching the sides around the edges to encase the cheese fully.
  • Lay the stuffed biscuit between two layers of parchment paper and gently flatten it using your palm. If needed, reseal the edges to keep the cheese securely inside.
  • Once flattened, transfer the biscuit pocket to a baking sheet.
  • Top the flattened biscuit pocket with pizza sauce, a generous amount of mozzarella cheese, your favorite pizza toppings, and a sprinkle of Italian Seasoning
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes or until the biscuit is golden brown and cooked through, and the cheese on top is melted and bubbly.
  • Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
