Pepperoni Pizza Potato Stackers

Pepperoni pizza potato stackers… are you looking for a slightly ‘extra’ Game Day snack? Look no further.

These delicious little bites are packed with flavour – cheesy and buttery with a kick of tomato, garlic, herbs and of course, pepperoni. An absolutely classic flavour combination for a reason. If you love pepperoni pizza, these are for you.

These pepperoni pizza potato stackers come together pretty easily, you can use leftover ingredients if you have them on hand and they cook in under an hour.

If you don’t mind some messy hands in the kitchen, these are a great treat to make with the kids too.

How to make pepperoni pizza potato stackers:

What you’ll need:

• Roughly 650g of small / baby potatoes
• 40g mozzarella (grated)
• 40g cheddar (grated)
• 40g parmesan (grated)
• 80g butter (melted) – I like to use salted butter
• 100g passata
• 1tbsp oregano
• 2 cloves garlic (grated)
• Handful of fresh thyme (optional)
• Roughly 24-36 pepperoni slices – allows 2-3 per stack
• Salt and pepper

Instructions:

• Pre-heat the oven to 200C and get a 12 hole muffin tin out
• Slice the potatoes using a mandolin (highly recommended) or a very sharp knife – you want them in very fine slices, about 1-2mm only
• In a large mixing bowl, stir together mozzarella, cheddar, parmesan, oregano, thyme, garlic, butter and passata – make sure it’s combined really well. Season with salt and pepper
• Add the potato slices and pepperoni to the butter and passata mixture and stir well to coat all of the potato with the sauce
• Using your hands, prepare the potato and pepperoni slices into 12 small stacks, placing them into each muffin hole as you go – make sure you distribute the cheese and pepperoni evenly throughout. You want the stacks to be at the top of the muffin holes
• Cover with tin foil, place on a an additional baking sheet and place in the oven for 30 minutes
• Remove the tin foil and return to the oven for a further 25 minutes – or until golden brown and bubbling
• Allow to rest for 10 minutes minimum to set and then serve your pepperoni pizza potato stackers!

Notes!

• These ARE a little ‘greasy’ to eat – just like you’d expect on a pepperoni pizza!
• If you want them to stay in their stacks, let them cool for at least 10 minutes before serving to allow the cheese to settle and keep them in place
