Scale
For the Chips:
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup cream cheese (softened)
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- 1/2 tsp dried basil
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional for extra flavor)
- Pizza toppings of your choice (e.g., pepperoni, bell peppers, onions, olives, mushrooms)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese, softened cream cheese, egg, garlic powder, oregano, basil, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well-mixed.
- Form the Pizza Chips: Spoon the cheese mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming small rounds. Spread evenly to about 1/4-inch thickness.
- Bake the Chips: Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Add Sauce and Toppings: Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over the baked chips and add your favorite toppings like cheddar, pepperoni, mushrooms, or veggies.
- Return to the Oven: Bake for an additional 5-7 minutes until the cheese melts and toppings are heated.
- Serve and Enjoy: Cool for a minute before serving. Slice and enjoy your crispy, cheesy pizza chips!
Notes
- Soggy pizza chips: Bake the base until it’s crispy before adding toppings to avoid sogginess.
- Customize the toppings: Add your favorite pizza toppings, such as pepperoni, mushrooms, olives, or spinach.
- Watch your baking time: Keep an eye on your pizza chips as they bake. You want the edges golden but not burnt.
