Get the Recipe: Pepperoni Pizza Bites
These Pepperoni Pizza Bites are bursting with pepperoni and mozzarella cheese! At one net carb each, these make the perfect low-carb lunch!
Ingredients
- 2 cups chopped or sliced pepperoni
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/3 cup coconut flour, or almond flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 3 large eggs, beaten
- 1 1/4 cups shredded mozzarella
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Combine cream cheese, pepperoni, shredded cheese and eggs until completely combined.
- Add in remaining ingredients until well combined and chill 10 minutes to allow the flour time to absorb the moisture. If after 10 minutes there is still a considerable amount of moisture, chill another 10 minutes.
- Drop onto a greased baking sheet (I like to use the silicone baking mats) using a small cookie scoop.
- Bake 18-20 minutes until golden brown.
Notes
Chill time: If you skip chilling the dough they will flatten as they cook and not be nice round balls.
Coconut flour: Almond flour can be used in place of coconut flour, but the bites wil not be as light and fluffy.
Servings: This recipe made 30 pizza bites for me, but that will depend on the size scoop you use and how tightly you pack them.
