Here's How To Make A Pizza Cronut Because You Know You Want One

Remember the cronut, that deliciously flaky king of pastries that launched a thousand people waiting in line for hours? Although the obsession with Dominique Ansel's croissant-doughnut hybrid has died down a fair bit, you may want to pay attention again.

 The good folks over at Dude Foods have created a pizza cronut: a stack of croissant doughnuts layered with melted cheese and topped with cheese and pepperoni. The result is a savory, pizza-fied version of the original pastry that everyone was talking about in 2013.

The Dude Foods reporter describes his process as such: He cut croissant dough into little circles, poked holes in the middle, stacked them with shredded cheese in between, and then deep-fried the layers for about a minute until golden-brown. Then he topped the whole thing with pizza sauce, even more cheese, and mini pepperoni, and baked it in the oven for about seven minutes on 350 degrees F.
