Description

Delightful and easy-to-make mini pizzas using English muffins as the base, topped with flavorful pizza sauce, melty mozzarella cheese, and your choice of assorted toppings. Perfect for a quick snack or a fun family meal.


Ingredients

Scale

Base

  • 4 English muffins (halved)

Sauce

  • 1 cup pizza sauce

Cheese

  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Toppings

  • 1 cup assorted toppings (pepperoni, bell peppers, olives, etc.)
  • 2 tsp Italian herbs (oregano, basil, thyme)


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the mini pizzas.
  2. Prepare Muffin Bases: Place the English muffin halves cut-side up on a parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
  3. Spread Sauce: Generously spread pizza sauce over each muffin half to create a flavorful base for the toppings.
  4. Add Cheese: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauced muffin halves, covering them well.
  5. Add Toppings: Distribute your favorite assorted toppings such as pepperoni, bell peppers, and olives on top of the cheese. Finish by sprinkling Italian herbs to enhance the flavor.
  6. Bake: Bake the mini pizzas in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and the edges of the muffins are golden brown.

Notes

  • You can customize toppings based on your preferences or dietary restrictions.
  • Using parchment paper prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
  • For extra crispy bases, lightly toast the English muffins before adding toppings.
  • These mini pizzas are best enjoyed fresh and warm but can be refrigerated and reheated later.
