cheesy pizza bites

This recipe is an oldie, but goodie! I had a big zucchini that needed using up and I was sooo in the mood for these yummy (and guiltless) zucchini pizza bites!

Zucchini Pizza Bites

zucchini

olive oil spray

salt and pepper

tbsp quick marinara sauce

mozzarella

Cut zucchini about 1/4 inch thick.

Spray both side lightly with oil and season with salt and pepper.

Broil or grill the zucchini for about 2 minute on each side.

Top with sauce and cheese and broil for an additional minute or two. (Careful not to burn cheese)

Pepperoni Pizza Bites are like those frozen mini bagel pizzas, only made from scratch in a muffin tin using my Greek yogurt bagel dough.

Pepperoni Pizza Bites

Olive oil spray

unbleached all-purpose flour

baking powder (make sure it’s not expired,

salt

non-fat Greek yogurt (not regular yogurt, it

marinara or pizza sauce

mozzarella cheese

turkey pepperoni (chopped)

red pepper flakes

Preheat oven to 375˚F and spray two 12-cup stand size muffin tins with oil.

In a medium bowl combine the flour, baking powder and salt and whisk well.

Add the yogurt and mix with a fork or spatula until well combined, it will look like small crumbles.

Lightly dust flour on a work surface and remove dough from the bowl, knead the dough a few times until dough is tacky, but not sticky, about 15 turns (it should not leave dough on your hand when you pull away).

Divide the dough into 16 equal-size small balls (about 25 grams each).

Press each ball into the bottom of the muffin cups, allowing it to go up the side slightly.

Bake for 15 minutes, remove from oven and carefully press balls down in the middle to create a small well.

Top each ball with 2 teaspoons sauce, 1 tablespoon cheese and a sprinkle of pepperoni.

Return to the oven and bake 3 minutes, or until cheese is melted.

Remove from oven and allow to cool 2 minutes.  With a paring knife or metal offset spatula, carefully remove the bites, cutting around the top to remove any cheese that may have stuck to the pan.

Spray the pan again and repeat with remaining dough and toppings.
