This recipe for Pepperoni Pizza Stuffed Mushrooms requires few ingredients, is simple to make, and tastes great. It’s a spinoff of an appetizer or easy lunch that I like to make, Pizza Buns!

Pepperoni Pizza Stuffed Mushrooms is very kid-friendly, and does taste just like biting into a pepperoni pizza. It’s definitely one that most people will enjoy, which makes it a safe go-to for gatherings.
Plus, the mushrooms can be stuffed ahead of time and refrigerated up to 4 hours. So you can make it ahead of time, get ready for your outing and then bake just as you’re walking out the door.
Likewise, since it’s a short baking time, you could arrange to quickly bake at the hosts home, so that they are fresh and hot for guests to enjoy.
