Pizza Muffins

Sharing is caring!

Pizza muffins are an easy snack to make for toddlers and kids.

These pizza muffins taste just like pizza to me, except they are so quick and easy to make!  They are good for lunch boxes or an easy make-ahead snack. 

Add your favorite pizza toppings into these muffins to customize them to your taste!

These pizza muffins are a favorite snack for my toddler twins, and myself!

Make these muffins ahead of time and use them for snacks during the week!

Ingredients for the pizza muffins:

• 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour (white whole-wheat flour would work well too)
• 1/2 teaspoon Italian Seasoning Mix
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 cup butter melted (unsalted)
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup milk
• 2 tablespoons marinara sauce
• 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
• 1/2 cup cheddar cheese
• 3/4 cup mini pepperoni (you could also add in diced mushrooms, olives, sausage, peppers, etc. or just leave plain)
