Pizza Bites
Updated: Jan 1, 2020
This keto-approved food is the perfect snack for children and adults! If you are living the keto lifestyle, you are probably like me and are missing PIZZA! Instead of making a full keto pizza, I decided to try something new, which led me to these pizza bites. Grab your kids and let's get cooking!
Preheat your oven. Turn on your oven (on bake) to 400 degrees. Take out your backing sheet(s) and place a sheet of parchment paper on top of it.
Collect ingredients. This recipe is only 3 ingredients; cheese, pizza sauce, and pepperoni. Cooking Tip: For cheese I use shredded mozzarella cheese. I have used parmesan before, but just remember that the taste of the two cheeses are very different.
Layer your pizza bite. Make cheese piles on the parchment paper and then flatten for consistency. Then put a small about of pizza sauce on top of each pile and then top it off with a pepperoni. Cooking Tip: Since pepperoni is greasy, place your pepperoni's on a plate and microwave for 30 seconds. After you take the plate out of the microwave, blot the pepperoni's with a paper towel.
Cook your pizza bites. Place your cookie sheet in the oven and cook for 4-7 minutes. I like the cheese to get a little brown, so I keep them in there towards the 6-7 minute mark.
Once your pizza bites are done, let them cool for a couple minutes and then serve. My kids love to fold the pizza bites like a taco. Enjoy!
