Description

These individual pizza pot pies are filled with gooey cheese, pepperoni, and pizza sauce, all wrapped in a flaky pie crust. A fun and delicious twist on classic pizza.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1/2 cup diced green bell pepper
  • 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 (14 oz) jar pizza sauce
  • 1/2 cup sliced pepperoni
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 (9-inch) refrigerated pie crusts
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, heat olive oil. Add onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms; cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
  3. Stir in pizza sauce and pepperoni; remove from heat.
  4. Unroll pie crusts and cut each into 4 equal squares. Press each square into a greased muffin tin cup, allowing edges to overhang.
  5. Fill each crust with a spoonful of the sauce mixture, then top with a generous amount of mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
  6. Fold the overhanging crust edges over the filling, pinching to seal. Brush tops with beaten egg.
  7. Bake for 15-18 minutes, until golden brown and bubbly. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

You can customize the fillings with your favorite pizza toppings like cooked sausage, olives, or jalapeños. Serve with extra pizza sauce for dipping.
