How to Make It: 15-Minute School Snack in 6 Steps
Quick, easy, and stress-free—this process takes less time than packing a full lunchbox.
Step 1: Prep the Flaky Base
Cut one Mak’Cik™ Puff Pastry Sheet into small squares or rectangles—perfect bite-size for little hands.
Step 2: Add the Sauce
Spread 1 tsp of pizza sauce or a thin layer of ketchup on each piece. (Ketchup works just fine on rushed mornings!)
Step 3: Add Toppings
Place your kid’s favourite toppings on each piece. Quick options, such as sausage slices or a pre-cooked chicken loaf, save time.
Step 4: Add Cheese
Generously sprinkle shredded cheese for a gooey, melty finish.
Step 5: Bake!
Pop them into the oven or air fryer:
Oven: 180°C for 10–12 minutes
Air Fryer: 160–170°C for 8–10 minutes
Tip: Bake until the pastry is puffed, golden, and the cheese is bubbling!
Step 6: Pack & Go
Let the pizzas cool slightly (this is key for maximum crispiness!), then pack them into your child’s snack box. Crispy, cheesy, and aromatic—recess just got happier!

Parent Hack: Make Ahead & Freeze!
Save even more time by preparing Steps 1–4 in advance (cutting, sauce, toppings, and cheese) and freezing the uncooked pizzas solid. In the morning, bake them straight from the freezer—just add a few extra minutes to the baking time.
