Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (low-moisture)
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup pepperoni slices, cut into small pieces
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella and parmesan cheese with the Italian seasoning and garlic powder.
- Drop small, evenly spaced piles of the cheese mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each pile slightly with the back of a spoon.
- Top each cheese pile with a few pieces of pepperoni. Sprinkle crushed red pepper flakes on top, if desired.
- Bake for 8–12 minutes, or until the edges of the cheese are golden and crispy.
- Remove from the oven and let the chips cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. They’ll firm up as they cool.
- Carefully transfer the chips to a serving plate or airtight container for storage.
Notes
Keep a close eye on the chips while baking as cheese can burn quickly. Experiment with toppings like diced olives, mushrooms, or pineapple for a fun twist.
