Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Pizza dough
- 2 tbsp All-purpose flour (for dusting)
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 0.5 cup Tomato sauce
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 24 Pepperoni slices
- 1 tsp Dried oregano (optional)
- 6 Fresh basil leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the pizza dough to about 1/4-inch thickness. Use a 3-inch round cutter or the rim of a glass to cut out 12 circles from the dough.
Arrange the dough circles on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
Brush each dough circle lightly with olive oil. This will help the crust get golden and crispy during baking.
Spread 1 to 2 teaspoons of tomato sauce over each dough circle, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly on top of the sauce-covered dough circles.
Place 2 pepperoni slices on each pizzette. If desired, sprinkle a pinch of dried oregano over the top for added flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges of the pizzettes are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the pizzettes from the oven and let them cool slightly. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.
Serve warm as an appetizer or snack. Enjoy!
