Pepperoni Pizza Waffles

Have you ever had one of those days where you don't really feel like cooking, but you don't want to go get something? I'm having one of those moments now due to a cold that I've been battling for a couple days now. Well this recipe is great because you can have it ready in as little as 15 minutes and it's so warm and filling that it's perfect for the winter weather. The combination of the cheese and pepperoni are very traditional, but the added use of the butter with seasoning really takes it to another level. Then, you add the crunchiness from the flaky biscuits and you have yourself a version of pizza unlike you've ever had. It's also a perfect recipe for little hands to help with. Add any toppings or cheese combinations that you wish and watch them disappear. I warn you though, you may want to keep an extra can or two of biscuits around because these will be requested often! Enjoy!  

Pepperoni Pizza Waffles

Ingredients
1 can Flaky biscuits
3 Tablespoons butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
1/4 teaspoon Garlic Powder
Amount of Pepperoni desired for topping
Amount of Shredded Mozzarella desired for topping

Optional
Pizza or Marinara sauce for dipping

Preheat your waffle maker to desired setting. Ours goes from 1-5 and I usually do a 3. Mix the melted butter and seasonings in a bowl and set aside.

Open the can of biscuits and separate them. Gently push (and lightly stretch) each of them to flatten them out, creating a thinner, bigger biscuit. You will use two for each waffle. On half of them, spread with the butter mixture begin careful not to get too close to the edges because they will be harder to seal. Top with desired amount of cheese and pepperoni. Top with another biscuit and press to seal the edges together.

Place in the waffle maker and cook until done. Crust should be golden brown and slightly crisp. Serve with warmed pizza sauce if desired.

Breakfast Quesadilla Waffle

Ingredients (for 2)

5 eggs, beaten

2 tortillas

1/2 cup cheese, shredded (1/4 cup for each)

2 Tablespoons milk

Salt and Pepper to taste

Cooking spray

Optional

bacon

sausage

variety of vegetables

Cook your scrambles eggs as you normally would. We add a little milk to ours, but cook them to your liking. While your eggs are cooking, preheat your waffle iron (we do ours to 3). 

Once your waffle iron is heated, spray with oil. Lay a tortilla on it. Top with a little cheese, half the eggs, then the remaining cheese. Fold the top half of the tortilla down and close the waffle iron. Once finished, serve warm or with any desired sauces (I used sriracha).
