Description

Small, individual servings of pizza baked in a muffin tin.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup mini pepperoni slices

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, and egg.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of batter into the bottom of each prepared muffin cup.
  6. Top the batter in each cup with a small amount of pizza sauce.
  7. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese and pepperoni over the sauce in each cup.
  8. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden brown and cooked through.
  9. Remove from the oven and let cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool slightly.

Notes

  • You can add other small pizza toppings like cooked sausage or diced peppers.
  • For a crispier bottom, use paper liners and remove the cupcakes immediately after cooling slightly.
