Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 150g shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 50g grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Optional: 6 slices of pepperoni

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C and line a large baking tray with non-stick baking paper.
  2. In a small bowl, mix the mozzarella, parmesan, oregano, and garlic powder until well combined.
  3. Scoop tablespoon-sized mounds of the cheese mixture onto the tray, spacing them 5cm apart to allow for spreading.
  4. Place one slice of pepperoni on top of each mound if desired.
  5. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and crispy.
  6. Remove from the oven and let them cool on the tray for 2 minutes—this helps them crisp up perfectly before serving.

Notes

Don't rush the cooling process! The cheese needs a moment to set after leaving the oven so they achieve that satisfying 'snap' instead of being chewy.
By removing the traditional flour-based pizza dough and focusing on a high-protein, high-fat cheese base, we drop the carb count significantly while keeping the indulgent pizza flavours intact.
