- 1 cup marinara sauce
- 20 – 30 pepperoni slices
- 3/4 cups mozzarella, shredded

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400℉.
- Use the top of a medium size cup or round cooker cutter to make about 12 – 14 circles.
- With half of the circles, spread 1 – 1.5 tsp marinara suace from the center leaving 1/4 inch of the crust bare. Put 2 -3 pepperoni slices on top of the sauce followed by 1 – 1.5 tbs cheese and 1 tsp marinara sauce.

Tried this recipe?Let us know how it was!
One issue with the name though……wouldn’t mini strombolis be a better match for these? When I think pizza, I think exposed cheese and sauce on top of dough. If enclosed, it would be a calzone if ricotta was in there or a stromboli if just cheese and sauce. Just thinking…..
I made these tonight, changed the shape to get more, added sautéed peppers, onions & extra garlic. Then made ranch dressing to dip them in ! Delicious!
