How to Make the Low-Carb Pizza Puffs
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a 12-cup muffin pan.
- Prepare the garlic butter by melting unsalted butter and stirring in garlic salt and Italian seasoning. Set aside.
- Lay out each tortilla. Sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning.
- Spread a thin layer of sugar-free marinara sauce on each tortilla. Top with shredded mozzarella and pepperoni slices.
- Roll up each tortilla snugly, then slice into four equal pieces.
- Sprinkle a little shredded mozzarella and Italian seasoning into each muffin cup. Place a tortilla roll cut side up in each prepared cup.
- Top each roll with more shredded mozzarella and drizzle or brush with prepared garlic butter.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes until cheese is melted and edges start to brown.
- Remove and gently press rolls down with a spoon to flatten slightly. Add extra cheese and more garlic butter if desired.
- Set oven to broil. Broil for 3–5 minutes, watching carefully until tops are golden and bubbly.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with extra marinara if desired.
Notes
- Use your favorite low-carb tortilla brand for best results.
- Watch the broil stage closely to avoid burning the cheese.
- Customize fillings with cooked sausage, sautéed veggies, or different cheeses.
