Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 English muffins
- 0.5 cup Pizza sauce
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 16 pieces Pepperoni slices (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.25 teaspoon Dried chili flakes (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Split the English muffins in half horizontally to make 8 halves.
Arrange the muffin halves, cut side up, on the prepared baking sheet.
Spread about 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce on each muffin half, evenly covering the surface.
Sprinkle a generous layer of shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce on each muffin.
If using pepperoni slices, place 2 slices on each muffin half. Feel free to add other toppings if desired.
Sprinkle a pinch of dried oregano over each pizza snack for a touch of flavor. Add dried chili flakes for a bit of spice, if you like.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the muffins are slightly crispy around the edges.
Remove the pizza snacks from the oven and let them cool for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Enjoy your Quick Pizza Snacks warm as a fun appetizer or snack!
