Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 English muffins
- 1 cup Marinara sauce
- 2 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 24 pieces Pepperoni slices
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh basil (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly oil it to prevent sticking.
Split the English muffins in half to create 12 mini pizza bases and place them cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush each muffin half lightly with olive oil. This helps it get crispy and golden during baking.
Spread about 1 tablespoon of marinara sauce over each muffin half, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the marinara sauce on each muffin.
Top with 2 pepperoni slices per mini pizza or customize with your favorite toppings (e.g., diced bell peppers, sliced mushrooms, or olives).
Sprinkle a pinch of Italian seasoning over each mini pizza to enhance the flavor.
For an extra kick, sprinkle red pepper flakes on some or all of the mini pizzas, if desired.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a minute or two. Garnish with freshly chopped basil, if desired, before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy these Super Bowl Mini Pizzas with your favorite dips or on their own!
