Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper. In a small bowl, combine 1 cup tomato sauce, 1 small grated carrot, 1 small grated zucchini, 1 minced garlic clove, 1 tsp dried oregano, and 1/2 tsp salt. Stir well to blend the veggies into the sauce.
  2. Step 2: Roll out 1 lb pizza dough on a floured surface to about 12x14 inches thickness. Using a 3-inch round cutter, cut out 12 mini pizza rounds and place them spaced evenly on the prepared sheet pan.
  3. Step 3: Brush each pizza round lightly with 1 tbsp olive oil. Spread about 1 tbsp of the veggie tomato sauce evenly over each round.
  4. Step 4: Sprinkle about 2 tbsp shredded mozzarella cheese on each mini pizza. Top each with 3-4 mini pepperoni slices.
  5. Step 5: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden and cheese is bubbly and slightly browned. Let cool 3 minutes before serving.
