If you’re on the hunt for a lightning-fast appetizer or crave-worthy snack that delivers on flavor and crunch, Pepperoni Pizza Crackers are your answer. These bite-sized snacks pack all the classic flavors of pizza—cheesy, saucy, and savory—onto a buttery cracker base that’s irresistibly crisp. In just 10 minutes, you can whip up a tray of these mini pizza bites that will disappear even faster than you made them.
This recipe is a fun and family-friendly way to satisfy a pizza craving without the hassle of dough or delivery. Perfect for parties, after-school snacks, or even game night, these crackers are customizable and scalable. Whether you’re serving them to kids or grown-ups, they hit the spot with their nostalgic pizza flavor and satisfying crunch.
The base of this recipe is buttery Ritz crackers, but any similar snack cracker works well. Topped with marinara, gooey mozzarella, and zesty mini pepperoni slices, they become a crispy, savory treat that’s incredibly addictive. A quick bake melts the cheese to bubbly perfection, and you can level them up even more with a sprinkle of seasoning right out of the oven.
What makes this snack even better is the room it gives you to play—switch up the toppings, sauces, or cheeses to fit your taste. You can even set up a mini DIY pizza cracker bar for parties or family nights, letting everyone top their own.
