One of my kids’ favourite lunches are Pizza Bite Biscuits! Thankfully they are super fast to throw together. I have whipped these up in only 20 minutes! They are a terrific food for travel, a packed lunch, or even a picnic. They are delicious warm or cold, just like regular pizza!
I tend to make these Pizza Bite Biscuits in big batches, cool completely, and then freeze in large reseal able freezer bags until we need them. These are great to pull out of the freezer and right into a lunchbox! They will be thawed in time for lunch break and the kids love having their own little pizza in their lunch.
Pizza Bite Biscuits can be topped with any of your favourite pizza toppings. This recipe just calls for pepperoni and cheese because those are my kids’ favourite toppings. Feel free to add anything you like!
Pizza Bite Biscuits Recipe
½ cup pizza sauce
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ cup shredded cheese
½ cup chopped pepperoni slices
Quick and easy biscuit dough, unbaked (recipe below)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Take your dough and press into greased muffin cups (or mini muffin cups for the bite sized version).
Add some sauce to each cup.
Top with chopped pepperoni and shredded cheese, or any other topping you prefer.
Sprinkle over top with dried oregano.
Bake for 15 minutes or until edges of biscuit are starting to brown.
Cool in pan for 5 minutes before removing to cool on wire racks.
Enjoy!

Why You Should Be Cooking with Cast IronIn CookingFebruary 22, 2025I used to think cast iron was too much work—too heavy, too high-maintenance.

It sears meat like a pro, bakes the crispiest cornbread, and won’t flake toxic chemicals into your food. If you’re not cooking with cast iron yet, you’re seriously missing out. Here’s why you need one! […]
