    Pizza Muffins

    Delicious pizza muffin recipe that will blow you away. Can be used as an appetizer, snacks for anyone, or for dinner - so versatile! 

    Mouthwatering and Delicious Pizza Muffins

    For quite a little now, I have had this brilliant idea - well I think semi-brilliant, for pizza muffins. I have never had them before, but I knew that I would love them. Who doesn't love a great muffin with cheese and pepperoni stuffed inside with marinara sauce? I do!

    When I was first making them, I knew I wanted to use my basic muffin recipe that I used for blueberry and raspberry and my easy chocolate chip muffins.

    Mouthwatering and Delicious Pizza Muffins

    Both of those muffins are sweet and not savory at all. I knew that I didn't want a sweet muffin because they are pizza muffins. A dessert/breakfast muffin loaded with sugar, pepperoni, and cheese - now.. that is definitely a new one!

    I kind of wonder how that would taste, but I really don't. Are you the same way? It's like I do, but don't. I know it probably tastes weird, but I might just have to try it at least once. That's how my life goes, LOL.

    Mouthwatering and Delicious Pizza Muffins

    All I can say is that you will love these pizza muffins! If you have any kiddos or a husband who hasn't quite grown up yet (ahem!), they will definitely love them.

    You can eat them plain or dunk them in a delicious marinara sauce.

    You also do not have to take out your stand-up mixer, you will just need a mixing bowl and a plastic spatula to mix everything together. Delicious food and hardly no dishes - amazing!

    Mouthwatering and Delicious Pizza Muffins

    For these amazing pizza muffins you will need buttermilk. You can use the homemade version - add 1 teaspoon of vinegar to 1 cup of milk and allow it to sit for 10 minutes.

    The stars in this recipe are the italian seasonings - basil, oregano, and parsley, cheddar cheese, and pepperoni.

      I just made savory muffins tonight for our dinner, so I had to see your take on them.
      These look great and would be different from what I made--mine have big slices of sausage in them, where yours has pepperoni.
      I will pin this because muffins and me are best friends.

      These look scrumptious! I love that they kinda look like Red Lobster cheddar biscuits with pepperonis in them. Yummy! I would love it if you linked this up to my Motivate Me Monday linky party!

        My husband said the same exact thing, Katie! Not quite like a biscuit consistency, but very good.

      HI, These just sounded so wonderful! Thanks for sharing the recipe, I can't wait to try them out! I may add some Crispy cooked and crumbled Bacon to the batch as well! You have made me think of so many ideas with this recipe.... Even maybe switching the cheese to a pizza blend.. YUM! Either way I am grateful for the kick start and have saved it with added notes! I am enjoying your site so much, you have so many mouth watering recipes I am lost for words! Thanks again and keep them coming!

        Hi Audrey! Yes, they can. I usually just microwave them for a few seconds to warm them up.
