Ingredients
Scale
Cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Toppings
- 1/4 cup pepperoni slices (or diced turkey pepperoni)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Form Cheese Piles: Place small piles of shredded mozzarella cheese, approximately 1 tablespoon each, evenly spaced about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
- Add Pepperoni: Top each cheese pile with a few slices or pieces of pepperoni to add savory flavor and a nice topping layer.
- Bake Chips: Bake in the preheated oven for 7 to 10 minutes, or until the edges of the cheese chips turn golden brown and become crispy.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the pizza chips to cool for a few minutes to firm up. Serve them warm for the best texture or store them once fully cooled for later snacking.
Notes
- Use parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent cheese from sticking to the baking sheet.
- Make sure to space the cheese piles well to allow them to spread and crisp properly.
- For a lower-fat option, use part-skim mozzarella cheese.
- Feel free to customize with other pizza toppings like sliced olives, peppers, or mushrooms.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container to maintain crispness.
