Puff Pastry Pepperoni Pizza is the way to get pizza on the table in minutes! You’ll never have an excuse for delivery again.
This Puff Pastry Pepperoni Pizza is seriously life changing! Now how could that be? Well you see, I make homemade pizza every single Saturday that we are home and sometimes when we are traveling too.
So when I decided to use puff pastry to make pizza that was a big deal for me because I also make my own pizza dough.
Sometimes I have the pizza dough frozen in the freezer and I just pull it out early Saturday morning so it is ready for the evening but most of the time I am making the dough early afternoon and letting it rest before I make the pizzas in the evening.
When time doesn’t permit, it’s nice to have pre-made dough around!
To have a pre-made dough ready to go really was kind of awesome. I first tested it out by making it for myself one day for lunch. It’s just me at home and I am not always eating really good for lunch therefore I went out on a limb and made it.
Self control was not my friend that day. I was so tempted to eat the entire pizza, it was that good. Eventually I did save a few slices for the kids so they could eat it for an afternoon snack!
How to use pantry staples or frozen foods?
- frozen puff pastry is easy to have on hand when you need it!
- I free cheese all of the time, so it’s easy to save and conserve!
- Canned tomato sauce is a pantry staple of ours. We are never out!
- Keeping dried herbs stocked is essential to cooking!
- Pepperoni doesn’t need to be refrigerated so you can keep plenty in your pantry to use at any given time!
How to make puff pastry pizza!
The best thing about this pizza is that by time your oven has come up to the right temperature your puff pastry is ready to be rolled out. There is really not that much time from start to finish which is always a plus in my books!
Now how did it go over with the family you ask? It went well, except for my husband. Don’t get me wrong he liked it but he didn’t love it like me. He thought it was too buttery because you know puff pastry is all about the butter.
I personally didn’t taste the butter, I tasted the deliciousness of the sauce, pepperoni and cheese!

This was terrible. The crust was mush. Not going to make it again.

Hi Linda, so sorry you didn’t enjoy it. Puff pastry normally comes out flaky and buttery. Next time, you could try increasing your oven temperature or baking it a few minutes before adding on the toppings. Thanks!

I am going to try this. It looks good. What type of cheese did you use?
Nancy Piran
Hi, I use mozzarella cheese for this pizza.

I had some puff pastry that I was trying to find a use for, and when I saw this recipe, I had to try it! I put tomato sauce, cheddar, feta, parmesan, scallions, red peppers and Italian seasoning on it — delicious! Thank you!
