Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your campfire coals until they are hot and glowing, or prepare your pie iron grill.
  2. Take two slices of wheat bread and place one on a flat surface.
  3. Spread approximately 1 1/2 tablespoons of pizza sauce evenly over the center of the first bread slice, leaving a small border.
  4. Top the sauce with shredded mozzarella cheese and a few slices of pepperoni.
  5. Place the second slice of bread on top to form a sandwich.
  6. Butter the outer sides of both bread slices lightly to help them brown and prevent sticking.
  7. Open the pie iron and place the sandwich inside, pressing the lid down gently to flatten slightly.
  8. Place the closed pie iron directly onto the hot coals or grill grate.
  9. Cook for about 5 to 7 minutes, flipping the iron halfway through, until the bread is golden brown and crispy.
  10. Carefully open the hot iron, remove the pizza pie, and let it cool for a minute before serving.
