Low-carb, keto mini pepperoni pizza cups Low-carb, keto, pepperoni cups with mozzarella, onions, peppers. Only 15 minutes in the oven to a delicious pizza treat. Prep Time: 5 minutes Cook Time: 15 minutes Yield: 24

I was in the mood for pizza, but didn’t have enough ambition to create a crust. Instead, I adapted a recipe I found online that used a 24-cup mini muffin pan

The result was pretty good. I ate about half of them as a meal, but they would probably make a better appetizer. The pizza cups with the jalapenos were a bit too salty when combined with the pepperoni. You may want to try experimenting with toppings.

Ingredients:

24 pieces of pepperoni – 0 carbs

1 cup mozzarella cheese – 3.5 grams carbs

1/4 onion – chopped – 2.5 grams carbs

1/2 red or green pepper – chopped – 3 grams carbs

1 tbsp pizza seasoning – 0 carbs

– 0 carbs 10 slices jalapeno pepper slices (optional) – ~1.5 grams carbs

Instructions:

Put one piece of pepperoni in the bottom of each muffin slot. Top each with an equal amount of mozzarella. Sprinkled them with pizza seasoning. Sprinkle on onion and pepper. You can sprinkle on jalapeno slices now, but I thought they made the pizza cups a bit salty. You may want to try it on only a few. Bake them at 350 for 15 minutes.

They were tasty, and they were cute little cups.

Makes 24 pizza cups. Total recipe = 10.5 grams carbs.

Approximately 6 pizza cups equals a serving or 2.5 grams carbs.
