Mini Pizza Bites
Ingredients
  • cooking spray
  • 8 medium cherry tomatoes
  • 1 (11 ounce) can refrigerated pizza crust
  • 8 teaspoons shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce (such as Classico®)
  • 8 teaspoons finely chopped red onion
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 8 slices pepperoni, quartered
  • Italian seasoning to taste
  • red pepper flakes to taste
  • garlic salt to taste
Instructions
1
Acquire all necessary ingredients before commencing the preparation process.
2
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
3
Spray cooking spray liberally onto the interior surfaces of an 8-cup muffin tin to prevent sticking.
4
Next, chop the cherry tomatoes into small pieces and remove any excess moisture; set these aside for later use.
5
Unroll the pizza crust on a lightly floured work surface, and then spread it out into an extended rectangle shape.
6
Using a 4-inch round cookie cutter, cut out 8 identical circular pieces of dough.
7
Place each dough circle into the prepared muffin tin, pressing it firmly into the bottom and up the sides of each cup.
8
Add 1 teaspoon of shredded mozzarella cheese to each cup, followed by a tablespoon of pizza sauce.
9
Add cherry tomatoes and sliced red onions on top of the sauce.
10
Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of shredded mozzarella cheese over each cup, followed by a few slices of pepperoni.
11
Add a pinch of Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, and garlic salt to each cup for added flavor.
12
Finally, bake the pizzas in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly, taking around 14 to 15 minutes.
13
Remove the pizzas from the oven and allow them to cool for approximately 5 minutes within the muffin tin.
14
Once cooled, carefully remove the pizzas from the tin and serve them hot.
