Instructions
Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 425° F to prepare for baking the pizza bites.
Prepare egg mixture: In a medium bowl, beat the two eggs thoroughly. Add garlic powder, basil, and oregano to the eggs and stir until fully combined for flavor.
Mix batter: Add the gluten-free Bisquick mix, water, and olive oil to the egg mixture. Stir until fully combined. The batter will be thin, similar to cake batter consistency.
Prepare muffin pan: Spray a regular-sized muffin pan with olive oil cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Fill muffin tins: Use a greased ice cream scoop or spoon to fill each muffin tin about three-quarters full with the crust batter.
Add cheese and sauce: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the batter in each muffin cup. Spoon gluten-free pizza or spaghetti sauce over the cheese, then add another layer of mozzarella cheese on top.
Add toppings: Add your favorite pizza toppings if desired for extra flavor and texture.
Bake: Bake the pizza bites in the preheated oven for 15 minutes until the cheese is melted and the crust is cooked through.
Cool and serve: Allow the pizza bites to cool for 1-2 minutes before removing them from the muffin pan. Serve warm and enjoy!
Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container. Reheat in the microwave or oven before serving again.
Notes
If you prefer, you can make your own gluten-free mix as referenced in the recipe notes for a homemade crust base.
Use dairy-free cheese to make this recipe suitable for lactose intolerance or vegan adaptations (though the recipe contains eggs, so not fully vegan).
Customize pizza toppings to your liking such as pepperoni, olives, mushrooms, or bell peppers.
Using an ice cream scoop helps portion the batter evenly for consistent-sized bites.
These pizza bites are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Reheat gently to avoid drying out the crust and toppings.
