Pepperoni Cheese Crisps Recipe

Crispy, cheesy, and loaded with the savory flavor of pepperoni, these Pepperoni Cheese Crisps are the ultimate low-carb snack. With just three ingredients and a quick bake time, they’re perfect for any occasion—from game day to movie night!

 

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/3 cup grated cheddar cheese
  • 1/3 cup grated mozzarella cheese
  • 12 slices of pizza pepperoni

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    • Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Preheat while you prepare the crisps for even baking.
  2. Prepare the Muffin Tin:
    • Use a non-stick muffin tin and place one slice of pepperoni at the bottom of each cup.
  3. Add the Cheese:
    • Evenly divide the grated cheddar and mozzarella cheese over the pepperoni slices. Press the cheese gently to adhere to the pepperoni.
  4. Bake the Crisps:
    • Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 8 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the edges are golden brown.
  5. Cool and Serve:
    • Remove the tin from the oven and allow the crisps to cool for 5 minutes. This helps the cheese set, ensuring the perfect texture. Carefully remove and serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Non-Stick Essentials: Use a non-stick muffin tin for easy removal and perfect crisps.
  • Cheese Options: Try Parmesan, Gouda, or Monterey Jack for a different flavor twist.
  • Add Seasonings: Sprinkle garlic powder, Italian seasoning, or red pepper flakes for extra zest.
  • Watch Closely: Keep an eye on the oven to prevent burning during the last few minutes of baking.
