I've got to be honest. I am not a football fan. I don't understand it, can't follow it and usually have no clue who is in the Super Bowl. But....ask me to cook for the big game and I'm there!~
Everyone loves pizza for a party. These little pepperoni puffs make a great appetizer. They have a crispy crust and are loaded with pepperoni! Just add your favorite pizza or marinara sauce.
Pepperoni Pizza Puffs
3/4 cup flour
3/4 tsp. baking powder
1 Tbsp. oregano or Italian seasoning
pinch of salt
pinch of red pepper flakes(optional)
3/4 cup milk
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 cup shredded 4 cheese Italian Blend cheese (mozzarella, provolone, Parmesan and romano)
1/4 cup grated Parmesan or Romano cheese
1 cup cubed pepperoni
Pizza or marinara sauce, warmed
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 24-cup mini muffin pan. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, oregano, salt and red pepper flakes; whisk in the milk and egg. Stir in the mozzarella, Parmesan and pepperoni. Let stand for 5 minutes. Stir the batter and divide among the mini-muffin cups (about 1 heaping Tbsp.). Bake until puffed and golden, 20 to 25 minutes.
Serve with warmed marinara sauce for dipping.
Makes 24 - recipe can be doubled.
