  2. Step 2

    Roll out the dough and cut it into small circles.

Tips & Tricks

  2. For a crispier crust, pre-bake the pizza bases for a few minutes before adding the toppings.

FAQS

  1. Can I use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour?

    Yes, you can use whole wheat flour, but the texture may be denser.

  2. How can I make these pizzas vegan?

    You can use vegan cheese and skip the pepperoni or use plant-based alternatives.

  3. Can I freeze the mini pizzas?

    Yes, you can freeze them before baking. Just bake them directly from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time.

  4. What other toppings can I use?

    You can use any toppings you like, such as mushrooms, olives, or cooked meats.

  5. How do I know when the pizzas are done?

    The pizzas are done when the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the crust is golden brown.
