Keto Pepperoni Pizza Chips
These Keto Pepperoni Pizza Chips are a must-try for anyone on a low-carb journey. They’re fast, flavorful, and fill that snack void without breaking your diet.
Ingredients
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 12 slices of pepperoni
- 1-2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and let it fully preheat. This ensures the cheese melts smoothly and the edges turn delightfully crispy.
- Cover a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. This prevents sticking and makes cleanup a snap.
- Divide the 2 cups of shredded mozzarella into 12 equal portions, roughly 2-3 tablespoons each. Place them on the baking sheet, keeping each mound about 2 inches apart to allow room for spreading.
- Lightly dust each cheese mound with a small pinch of Italian seasoning for a flavor boost. Then, gently press one pepperoni slice onto the top of each mound.
- Slide the baking sheet into the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes. Look for melted cheese with golden-brown edges as your sign they’re done.
- Take the baking sheet out and let the chips sit for a few minutes. They’ll firm up as they cool, delivering that satisfying crunch.
- Transfer the chips to a plate and serve while they’re at their crispiest. Perfect as a quick snack or party bite!
Notes
Storing Tips
Stash leftover keto pizza chips in the fridge in an airtight container. I recommend a hard container to help maintain their shape. That said, storing them will take down their crunch, which is why I try to bake only as many as I plan to eat in a sitting.
Recipe Notes
- Cleanup Tip: Parchment paper or a silicone mat not only keeps the cheese from sticking but also cuts down on post-snack scrubbing.
- Even Portions: Use a small cookie scoop or spoon to keep the cheese mounds consistent, ensuring they bake evenly every time.
- Flavor Trick: Let the cheese and toppings rest for 5-10 minutes before baking to deepen the taste without extra effort.
- Storage Hint: Leftovers stay best in an airtight container. Pop them back in the oven briefly to bring back the crunch if needed.
