Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Mini flour tortillas
- 1 cup Pizza sauce
- 1.5 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 24 pieces Pepperoni slices
- 2 tablespoons Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Dried Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 6 pieces Fresh basil leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Using a round cookie cutter (about 2 to 3 inches in diameter), cut out small circles from the mini tortillas to create the base for your pizzatizers. You should get about 4 rounds from each tortilla.
Brush one side of each tortilla round lightly with olive oil and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet, oiled side down.
Spread a small dollop (approximately 1 teaspoon) of pizza sauce onto the center of each tortilla round, spreading it out slightly with the back of a spoon.
Sprinkle a generous pinch of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce on each round.
Place one pepperoni slice on top of the cheese for each pizzatizer. Add a little more shredded mozzarella on top of the pepperoni if desired.
In a small bowl, mix the grated Parmesan cheese, dried Italian seasoning, and garlic powder. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of all the pizzatizers for added flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden, and the tortilla edges are crisp.
Remove from the oven and allow the pizzatizers to cool for 2-3 minutes before transferring them to a serving platter.
Garnish each pizzatizer with a small basil leaf, if using, and serve warm. Enjoy!
