Ingredients
- 2/3 cup (80 g) low moisture shredded mozzarella cheese
- 48 slices (21 g) mini pepperoni
- Optional: Italian seasoning, for sprinkling
- Optional: Warm marinara sauce, for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Heat oven to 350°F (177°C). Lightly grease 16 cups of a mini muffin pan.
- Assemble the Chips: Spoon 2 teaspoons of mozzarella into each greased muffin cup. Press cheese down gently, then top each with 3 mini pepperoni slices.
- Add Flavor: Sprinkle with Italian seasoning if desired.
- Bake: Bake for about 8 minutes, or until the cheese edges are golden brown and crispy.
- Cool and Serve: Let cool slightly, then pop out of the muffin tin. Serve warm with marinara sauce if using.
Tips for Perfect Pizza Chips
- Use low-moisture mozzarella to ensure crispy edges without sogginess.
- Don’t overfill the cups — too much cheese can overflow.
- Want spice? Add a dash of crushed red pepper flakes before baking.
- Use a nonstick muffin pan or silicone liner for easy removal.
Serving Ideas
- Pair with marinara sauce or ranch dressing for dipping.
- Add to a snack board with veggies and crackers.
- Serve as a low-carb side with soups or salads.
Storage and Reheating
- Store: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Reheat: Warm in the oven at 350°F (177°C) for 5–6 minutes, or air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 2–3 minutes to bring back crispiness.
