Equipment

baking sheet
Aluminum foil
Oven
spoon or spatula

Ingredients

6 English muffins, split
1 jar Prego pizza sauce (or any pizza sauce)
1–2 cups Kraft shredded mozzarella cheese
1 package Hormel pepperoni slices
Optional toppings: black olives, green bell peppers, pineapple, sausage, bacon, mushrooms

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (or 400°F for crispier muffins).
Split the English muffins and place them cut-side up on a foil-lined baking sheet.
Spoon 1–2 tablespoons of pizza sauce onto each muffin half and spread evenly.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
Top with pepperoni or other desired toppings.
Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and muffins are lightly browned.
Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!

Notes

For extra crispiness, pre-toast the muffins before topping. Let kids pick their own toppings to make it an activity as well as a meal. Store leftovers in the fridge up to 3 days and reheat in the oven to keep them crispy. These also freeze well before baking—perfect for make-ahead snacks!
