Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces spaghetti
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1 cup marinara sauce
- 20 pieces pepperoni slices (or other desired pizza toppings)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 4 leaves fresh basil leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and let cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
Add the cooked spaghetti to the egg mixture and toss well to coat all the noodles.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium heat.
Add the spaghetti mixture to the skillet and press it down evenly to form a crust. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the bottom is golden and crispy.
Preheat your oven’s broiler to high.
Spread the marinara sauce evenly over the spaghetti crust, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce and add the pepperoni slices (or other desired toppings).
Drizzle the remaining tablespoon of olive oil around the edges of the crust to help it crisp up further.
Place the skillet under the broiler for 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the spaghetti pizza cool for 5 minutes.
Carefully slice it into wedges, garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired, and serve warm.
