Just 5 ingredients and 20 minutes are all that’s needed for these amazingly delicious Mini Cupcake Pizzas!

Not only are these little pizzas packed full of flavor, they’re amazingly easy to make. I used a round cookie cutter for cutting the tortilla circles, but you can also use an opened can that has been emptied.
I used miniature pepperonis, but you can also used regular pepperoni and place them on the pizzas whole or slice them into 4 pieces.
This was a recipe I posted almost 5 years ago that I had to bring back with new photos to give it justice. Below is my original photo from 2013.

I make these a lot on weeknights and eat a few with a salad for a quick and easy complete meal. They reheat beautifully in my toaster oven; I bake any leftovers at 350 degrees F for approximately 8 minutes.
They’re also an awesome appetizer that always get wiped out at every gathering. Adjust the toppings to your personal preference (I’ve also made them with black olives and mushrooms!).
