Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Alternatively, you can use 2 medium baking sheets. Slice the zucchini 1 inch thick, and using a melon baller, scoop a bit from the inside, to create a small cup that will hold in the sauce.
- Arrange the zucchini on a prepared baking sheet and top with marinara sauce, mozzarella, and pepperoni slices.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese melted and bubbly.
Notes
- If you don't have marinara sauce, low-carb pizza sauce or tomato sauce works great too.
- Mozzarella works great on these Zucchini Pizza Bites, but they can be made with any cheese.
- To make larger rounds, slice zucchini diagonally.
- Strands of pre-shredded mozzarella can be too long and messy, finely shred your own or roughly chop bagged shredded mozzarella to make sprinkling easier.
- You can use a grill pan or a nonstick skillet.
- Finely dice some red or yellow bell pepper and sprinkle it on top for more veggie goodness!
- Feel free to top with your favorite pizza toppings, chopped up!
