The ingredients are simple, and the process is fast!

Here is the recipe for quick, cheesy, and addictive Pizza Chips:


🍕 4-Ingredient Pizza Chips (Cheese Crisps)

These chips are ready in under 20 minutes (including prep and cook time) and deliver maximum flavor.

📋 Ingredients

QuantityIngredientNotes
1 cup (100g)Shredded Mozzarella CheeseLow-moisture works best for crispiness.
1/4 cup (25g)Grated Parmesan CheeseAdds salty, crunchy texture.
1/2 tspItalian SeasoningThe essential pizza flavor blend.
12-16 slicesMini Pepperoni or Chopped OlivesThe “topping.”

🔪 Instructions (15 Minutes Total)

1. Prep and Mix (3 Minutes)

  1. Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Do NOT use foil, as the cheese will stick.
  2. Mix: In a small bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning.

2. Form and Top (3 Minutes)

  1. Scoop: Use a tablespoon to scoop small, uniform mounds of the cheese mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Leave at least 1 inch of space between each mound, as they will spread.
  2. Flatten: Lightly flatten the mounds slightly with the back of the spoon.
  3. Top: Place one or two mini pepperoni slices (or a few small pieces of chopped olives/peppers) on top of each cheese mound.

3. Bake and Crisp (9 Minutes)

  1. Bake: Bake for 8–10 minutes. The chips are done when they are fully melted, bubbly, and the edges are turning a deep golden brown and look crisp.
  2. Cool: Remove the tray from the oven. Let the chips cool completely on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes. As they cool, they will firm up and become perfectly crunchy.
  3. Carefully lift the crisps off the parchment paper with a spatula.

Serve immediately, perhaps alongside a side of quick marinara sauce for dipping!
