Equipment

  • 12 count muffin pan

Ingredients

  • 1 ball store-bought prepared pizza dough (for a standard pizza)
  • ¾ cup pizza sauce
  • 1 ¼ cups low fat mozzarella cheese (shredded)

Optional toppings:

  • mini turkey pepperoni
  • sliced olives
  • bell pepper (any color, finely chopped)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F. Lightly spray a 12-count muffin pan with cooking spray.
  • Cut or tear the pizza dough into 12 equal pieces.
  • Flatten each piece of dough into a small circle. Press one into each muffin cup, bringing the dough slightly up the sides.
  • Bake for 6–8 minutes, or until the dough begins to set and turns lightly golden. Carefully remove the pan from the oven.
  • Spoon about 1 Tbsp. pizza sauce into each cup. Add a small sprinkle of mozzarella, your favorite toppings and another sprinkle of mozzarella on top.
  • Bake for another 8–10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden.
  • Let the pizza bites cool for a few minutes before carefully removing them from the pan. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Have leftovers? Store them in a covered container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Get the kids involved! They can help press the dough into the muffin cups and choose their own toppings.
  • Make them your own! Try different veggies or other favorite pizza toppings your family already enjoys.
