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.

Quick Cinnamon Roll Waffles

If your household was anything like mine growing up, we had these Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls quite frequently. Honestly I feel like it was about a weekly occurrence in our house. Well, if you follow me on Instagram, a few weeks ago I posted a photo of my awesome new All-Clad waffle maker and promised some recipes. Now while this isn't the crème de la crème of recipes, it is super easy and super fast and combines my childhood with my adult life. Think scrambling to get the kids ready on a school day or, in my case, husband running out the door for work. You don't have 20 to 30 minutes to prepare breakfast, so what do you do? You heat your waffle maker, pop the cinnamon rolls open, and place to inside at once that cook for 5 minutes or less. Like I said, a super easy and super quick recipe. They have the same great taste and at 140 calories a pop (with icing), they aren't too bad on your waistline. You can refrigerate what you don't use to use another day! Enjoy!

Quick Cinnamon Roll Waffles

Ingredients

Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls (duh)

Olive Oil Spray (or whatever you use already)

Preheat your waffle maker to the setting of your choosing. I set ours to a 2 or 3 usually. When preheated, spray lightly with olive oil spray and place 2 cinnamon rolls (our is a 2 square, your may be bigger) in the waffle maker, close the top, and cook until done, about 3-5 minutes.

Place some icing on each one when they come out so it melts and serve!
