The crust on these Mini Pepperoni Pizza Appetizers gets a little crispy if you leave them in the oven until they start to brown a little on the bottom.
We really like them like them this way!
As you can see in the photos the edges start to brown, that is when you know they are going to be a little crispy.
I did not measure the pizza sauce for every mini pizza and the amount specified in the recipe below is a guesstimate.
You just want to put a little sauce in the middle of each crust.
We did measure the cheese and then divided a half cup between the 12 mini pizzas.
I love plain cheese pizza so I chose to leave the pepperoni off of some.
Obviously you can put pepperoni on all of them, or none of them.
The possibility of toppings on these mini pizzas is almost endless.
Just be sure that whatever topping you choose will cook in the 7 to 9 minutes it takes to bake the pizzas.
Cutting the toppings into small pieces would help with that.
Some other topping ideas:
- mushrooms
- bell peppers
- ground beef
- Canadian bacon
- ham
- pineapple
- onions

Mini Pepperoni Pizza Appetizers
Ingredients
- 1 tube thin pizza crust 11 ounces
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce approximately
- 1/2 cup Italian cheese blend
- mini pepperoni
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Roll pizza crust out on parchment paper, carefully stretch dough so you can cut 3 across and 4 down. Use a round object that is 3 inches across to cut dough into 12 mini crusts, I use a drinking glass. Discard remaining dough.
- Spread a little sauce on each crust, leaving a border. I use a regular teaspoon, not a measuring spoon. Top with cheese and mini pepperoni.
- Bake for 7-9 minutes or until cheese is melted and the crust begins to brown.
