Ingredients
Scale
- 2/3 cup (80g) low-moisture shredded mozzarella cheese
- 48 slices (21g) mini pepperoni
- Italian seasoning (to taste)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C). Grease 16 cups of a mini muffin pan.

- Add extra toppings like shredded parmesan or crushed red pepper flakes for variation.
