Ingredients:
– Slices of pepperoni (as many as you’d like to make)
– Cream cheese (enough to spread on each slice of pepperoni)
– Everything bagel seasoning
– Ranch dressing or marinara sauce for dipping
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Lay out your pepperoni slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
3. Spread a layer of cream cheese on half of the pepperoni slices.
4. Sprinkle the cream cheese-covered pepperoni slices generously with everything bagel seasoning. This seasoning adds a delightful crunch and flavor.
5. Place another pepperoni slice on top of each cream cheese-covered slice, creating a “sandwich” with the cream cheese mixture in the middle.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes or until the pepperoni slices become crispy and the cream cheese is slightly melted. Keep an eye on them to avoid overcooking.
7. Remove from the oven and let them cool for a minute or two before serving.
8. Serve your Pepperoni Cream Cheese Everything Bagel Bites with a side of ranch dressing or marinara sauce for dipping. These little bites are a perfect appetizer or snack for any occasion, and the combination of flavors is sure to be a hit! Enjoy!
