Pizza Snacks
Ingredients
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup pizza sauce
- 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup pepperoni minis
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese – torn into small pieces
- 1/4 small red onion peeled and sliced
- 5 basil leaves roughly torn
- A few sprigs fresh parsley finely chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425F.
- Spray 2 muffin trays with spray oil (This recipe makes approx 16 pizza snacks, so you'll probably need two trays).
- Place a tortilla on a chopping board and cut 4 circles out of it using an empty can or a cookie cutter (approx 2.5 inches diameter). Repeat with the remaining tortillas so you have 16 circles.
- Press the tortilla circles into the muffin trays. Make sure you push them to the bottom and then squash the sides against the sides of the tray – so you have enough room for the toppings.
- Place 1 tbsp of pizza sauce on each tortilla. Divide the cheddar between the tortillas.
- Divide the pepperoni between half of the tortillas. Top the remaining tortillas with the mozzarella and red onion.
- Place into oven and cook for 9-10 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and leave to cool in the tin for 1 minute. Top the mozzarella pizzas with the basil. Sprinkle the parsley on the pepperoni pizzas before serving.
