Pizza Cheese Bites (Printable Version)

Try these cheesy, crispy bites with pepperoni that come together super fast. Awesome for a quick snack, parties, or movie nights.

# What You'll Need:

→ Seasoning

01 - A bit of Italian seasoning for tossing on top

→ Meat

02 - 48 mini pepperoni slices (21 g total)

→ Dairy

03 - 80 grams shredded mozzarella—use the drier kind

# Steps to Follow:

01 - After baking, give the chips a moment to cool down so they're easier to lift out. Pop them out with care, stack them up, and grab some marinara if you want to dip.
02 - Slide the pan into your oven for about 8 minutes. Watch for deep golden, crispy cheese edges.
03 - Dust a little Italian seasoning over the tops to give them a nice boost of flavor.
04 - Drop three mini pepperoni slices on each bit of cheese. No need to get fussy—just make sure they all get covered.
05 - Scoop two teaspoons of shredded mozzarella into every greased muffin cup. Press it down a little for a flat base.
06 - Turn the oven on to 177°C. Spray or grease up 16 wells in your mini muffin tray so they don't stick.

# Additional Notes:

01 - If you use the drier mozzarella, your chips get extra crunchy. Don't pull them out till they're cool or they'll fall apart.
