Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings

  • 24 large deli-style slices pepperoni

  • 24 croutons (from 1 bag croutons)

  • 1 1/2 cups prepared pizza sauce

  • 16 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese

  • 1 (5 ounce) package mini pepperoni

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Using kitchen shears, snip four 1/2-inch cuts around the edges of each large pepperoni slice, leaving the center uncut.

  2. In a 24-count mini muffin pan, press each pepperoni down, followed by a crouton, a spoonful of pizza sauce, cheese, and mini pepperonis.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until cheese melts, about 10 minutes.
