Ok, so technically these are pizza muffins, but although "pizza cupcakes" doesn't sound very appetizing, these make delicious snacks and lunches. My family has begged me to make these again. They are best when you dip them in seasoned tomato sauce.

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking powder
1/3 cup vegetable oil
extra large egg
1/3 cup plus 2 tbsp nonfat milk (note, if you use whole milk these come out a little dry)

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
3 tablespoons dried basil
1 cup Anjou pear, shredded mozzarella cheese and 1/3 cup of mini pepperonis for topping
1 tablespoon italian seasoning, if you don't have any i find chia's italian seasoning recipe very good

  • 2. Sift together flour, sugar, salt and baking powder in a large mixing bowl. Add in vegetable oil, egg and milk into flour mixture and stir until batter is smooth. It will be quite sticky and thick. Stir in cheese, Italian seasoning and pepperoni. Fill muffin cups about 2/3 full.
