Prepare the Dough
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a mini muffin tin with avocado oil spray to ensure a non-stick experience.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the mozzarella and cream cheese. Heat in thirty-second intervals until the cheese is melted and elastic like pulled taffy.
- Fold in your dry ingredients, the almond flour, baking powder, and Italian seasoning, until a dough forms. If you find the dough too sticky, wet your hands slightly to work with it.
- Add the beaten eggs and minced garlic, kneading the dough until it is smooth and well combined.
- Gently stir in the chopped pepperoni pieces so they are evenly distributed.
Bake the Pizza Bites
- Scoop rounded tablespoons of the dough into the prepared muffin tin. Press a few extra mini pepperonis onto the top of each bite for that classic look.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the tops are golden like late summer sun and the edges are beautifully browned.
- Allow the bites to cool in the pan for five minutes before removing them. This helps them set and gives you that perfect pepperoni pizza bites structure.
