Instructions

Preheat Your Equipment
Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup super easy.

Prepare Your Cooking Vessel
No prep needed for the dish beyond the lined baking sheet just make sure the chips are spaced evenly.
Assemble the Dish
Spoon a small amount of pizza sauce onto each chip, then sprinkle with mozzarella. Top with a slice of pepperoni and a dash of Italian seasoning. Add crushed red pepper if desired.
Cook to Perfection
Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the chip edges are golden and crispy.
Finishing Touches
Let cool slightly so the cheese sets a bit this makes them easier (and safer) to pick up and enjoy.
