Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Portabella mushroom caps
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 cups Pizza sauce
- 1 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 12 pieces Pepperoni slices
- 0.5 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 4 leaves Fresh basil leaves (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Carefully clean the portabella mushroom caps with a damp paper towel to remove dirt. Remove the stems and gently scrape out the gills using a spoon.
Brush both sides of each mushroom cap with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Place the mushrooms gill-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
Spoon about 2 tablespoons of pizza sauce into each mushroom cap and spread it evenly.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the pizza sauce in each cap.
Add 3 pepperoni slices to each mushroom cap on top of the cheese.
Sprinkle a pinch of Italian seasoning over each pizza for added flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling, and the mushrooms are tender.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired and serve warm.
