Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 pieces round or square crackers (e.g., Ritz or saltines)
- 0.5 cup pizza sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup mini pepperoni slices
- 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon dried basil
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for a spicy kick)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Arrange the crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one.
Spread a small amount of pizza sauce (about 1/2 teaspoon) on each cracker, covering the surface but not overflowing the edges.
Sprinkle an even layer of shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the pizza sauce on each cracker.
Place 1-2 mini pepperoni slices on top of the cheese, depending on the size of the crackers.
Sprinkle a pinch of dried oregano and basil over each cracker for added flavor.
If desired, add a tiny pinch of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
Bake in the preheated oven for 6-8 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let the pizza crackers cool for 1-2 minutes before serving.
Serve immediately and enjoy your bite-sized pizza treats!
