Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 slices Pepperoni slices
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried Italian herbs (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoon Red chili flakes (optional)
- 1 spray Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly spray the parchment with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Arrange the pepperoni slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they don’t overlap.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the pepperoni slices so they are lightly covered.
Add a light sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese over the mozzarella for extra flavor.
If desired, sprinkle dried Italian herbs and red chili flakes over the cheese for added seasoning.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden, and the pepperoni edges are crisp.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the pepperoni with cheese cool for 1-2 minutes to allow the cheese to set slightly.
Transfer the pepperoni with cheese to a serving plate using a spatula and serve immediately. Enjoy!
