Tips & Variations

How to Serve

Four round mini pizzas are placed in a row on a brown wooden board, each topped with a crispy, golden-brown crust that looks crunchy and slightly uneven. On top of the crust, there is a thick layer of melted white cheese, which is soft and smooth, with some golden spots around the edges. Each pizza has several shiny, bright red pepperoni slices evenly spread across the cheese, glistening with a slight oily texture. Small green herb flakes are sprinkled over the pizzas and pepperoni, adding color and texture. On the left side, there is a white cup filled with dark red marinara sauce, showing some texture in the sauce. The surface beneath the wooden board is a white marbled texture. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

Scale

Cheese and Toppings

  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 12 slices turkey pepperoni
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning (optional)

Additional

  • Keto pizza sauce (optional for dipping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it reaches the correct temperature for baking the pizza chips.
  2. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the cheese from sticking and to make cleanup easier.
  3. Form Cheese Mounds: Place 12 flat mounds of shredded mozzarella cheese evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are flattened slightly to form chip shapes.
  4. Add Seasoning and Pepperoni: Sprinkle Italian seasoning over each cheese mound if using. Then top each mound with a slice of turkey pepperoni to add flavor and texture.
  5. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12 minutes or until the edges of the cheese chips turn golden brown and become crispy.
  6. Cool and Serve: Let the chips cool on the baking sheet before serving. Cooling allows them to crisp up further and makes them easier to handle. Serve with keto pizza sauce if desired.

Notes

  • Ensure the cheese mounds are flattened to achieve an even, chip-like shape.
  • Do not overcrowd the baking sheet as the cheese will spread during baking.
  • Use turkey pepperoni for a leaner, keto-friendly option, or substitute with regular pepperoni if preferred.
  • Cooling the chips properly is key to achieving maximum crispiness.
  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container; reheat briefly in the oven to restore crispness.
  • This recipe is naturally gluten-free and suitable for low-carb diets.
