Ingredients
- 12 slices of pepperoni – The spicy savory base for every crisp.
- 1/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese – Brings bold sharp flavor and a beautiful golden finish.
- 1/3 cup shredded mozzarella cheese – Adds melty stretchy texture and depth.
Instructions
- Preheat Your Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). A hot oven is key to achieving that crisp, golden edge.
- Prepare the Pan: Use a non-stick muffin tin or line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place one slice of pepperoni in each muffin cup or arrange them in a single layer on your baking sheet.
- Add the Cheese: Sprinkle a pinch of shredded cheddar and mozzarella on top of each pepperoni slice. Press the cheese down gently, but don’t let it spill over the edges—it will spread while baking.
- Bake to Perfection: Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly with golden-brown edges.
- Let Them Cool: Remove from the oven and let the crisps cool in the pan for at least 5 minutes. This helps them firm up into that perfect crispy texture.
Notes
- These 3-ingredient crisps combine pepperoni and cheese into crispy bites that are perfect for keto diets.
