Pepperoni Cheese Crisps

These baked cheese crisps use one tablespoon mozzarella and one pepperoni slice per piece. The recipe makes eight crisps.

Ingredients

• 8 tablespoons shredded mozzarella
• 8 pepperoni slices
• Seasonings of choice, such as Italian seasoning or oregano

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Make 8 separate cheese piles, using 1 tablespoon mozzarella for each and shaping each pile slightly wider than a pepperoni slice.
3. Top each cheese pile with one pepperoni slice and add the chosen seasoning.
4. Bake for 7 minutes. For extra-crisp edges, switch to broil for the last 1–2 minutes of that time, watching closely to prevent burning.
5. Remove from the oven and let the crisps harden before serving.

Yield

Makes 8 crisps, or 2 servings of 4 crisps.
