Pepperoni Pizza Muffins

 

These "muffins" are great for parties or even dinner.  Any pizza lover will love these!











Ingredients:

• 3/4 cup flour
• 3/4 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 3/4 cup whole milk
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 4 oz mozzarella cheese, shredded (about 1 cup)
• 2 oz mini turkey pepperoni, (about 1/2 cup) --> I have a hard time finding this, so I just get the regular size and cut it into smaller pieces.
• 1/2 cup pizza sauce

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 375°. Grease a 24-cup mini-muffin pan. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, garlic powder and baking powder; whisk in the milk and egg. Stir in the mozzarella and pepperoni; let stand for 10 minutes.
2. Stir the batter and divide among the mini-muffin cups. Bake until puffed and golden, 20 to 25 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, microwave the pizza sauce until warmed through. Serve the puffs with the pizza sauce for dipping.
