Bun-izza – Don’t you love the Name?
When Naan bread pizza can be called naaniza, and tortilla pizza can be named tortizza why not bun pizza be called bun-izza😁.
Pizza cups with burger buns is such a fun recipe to make with family and friends. I make this often for my kids after school snack or as a breakfast on weekend mornings. A perfect breakfast or brunch on a lazy morning. You can make this a fun activity too, by making kids do the assembly and have fun with their choice of toppings.
This bun-izza can be made in bulk so serves well for a crowd. It gets ready in 10 minutes. I have used minimal toppings with capsicums, olives, jalapenos and 3 different cheese. You can either load with veggies like onions, corn, broccoli, mushrooms etc. or go simple with loads of cheese.

Enjoy these pizza buns hot straight out of the oven. These pizza cups stay good when refrigerated for 2 days. Since they have cheese i don’t recommend them to be kept on the kitchen counter.
If serving pizza cups from the refrigerator, reheat them in the microwave for 20 seconds and serve it hot.

These are so good! I made them last night, and we ate them all in no time. I would never have thought to use buns for pizza crust.

These remind me of English Muffin Pizzas. My mom used to make them for us all the time and let us pick our own toppings because we are all picky eaters. I’ve never tried them with buns but I bet they’re amazing!

My girls love pizza and this one is the easiest way to make it, either with just bread… or with bun like you did… Sounds like a good way to finish off the buns threatening to get stale in the fridge… Hehe…
