Description

Pizza Cones are crispy baked pizza dough cones filled with gooey mozzarella, savory pizza sauce, and your favorite toppings. This fun handheld snack is perfect for parties, lunches, or family dinners, offering a delightful twist on classic pizza in a convenient cone shape.


Ingredients

Pizza Dough

  • 1 pound pizza dough

Filling

  • 1 cup pizza sauce
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup mini pepperoni
  • ¼ cup sliced black olives
  • ¼ cup diced bell peppers
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Finishing

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Grated Parmesan cheese, for sprinkling


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for baking the pizza cones.
  2. Prepare Dough Cones: Wrap strips of pizza dough around cone molds carefully, making sure the dough covers the molds evenly without gaps to prevent leakage during baking.
  3. Brush with Olive Oil: Lightly brush the dough-covered cone molds with olive oil to help achieve a golden crispy crust once baked.
  4. Bake Cones: Place the dough-wrapped molds in the oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the dough is golden and fully cooked.
  5. Remove Cones from Molds: Take the cones out of the oven and gently remove them from the molds to prepare for filling.
  6. Fill the Cones: Fill each cone with a layer of mozzarella cheese, followed by pizza sauce, mini pepperoni, black olives, diced bell peppers, and sprinkle with Italian seasoning for flavor.
  7. Final Bake: Return the filled cones to the oven and bake for an additional 5 to 7 minutes, just until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  8. Finish and Serve: Sprinkle the baked pizza cones with grated Parmesan cheese and serve warm for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • Customize your pizza cones with your favorite toppings such as mushrooms, onions, or different cheeses.
  • Best enjoyed fresh from the oven to maintain crispiness and gooey cheese texture.
  • For a vegetarian option, omit the pepperoni and add extra vegetables or plant-based protein.
