Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Clean the Portabella mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel.
- Remove the stems and, if desired, use a spoon to gently scrape out the gills to create more space for the toppings.
- Lightly brush the tops and bottoms of the mushrooms with olive oil to keep them moist during baking.
- In a small bowl, mix together the tomato sauce, dried oregano, and garlic powder.
- Slice the pepperoni if it isn't pre-sliced.
- Place the mushrooms on a baking sheet, gill side up.
- Spoon the tomato sauce mixture evenly onto each mushroom.
- Cover the sauce with shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Arrange 3 slices of pepperoni on top of each mushroom.
- Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the entire surface.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the mushrooms are tender.
- Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven.
- Let the mushrooms cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Enjoy your delicious Portabella Pepperoni Pizza!
Tips:
- Clean the Mushrooms: Gently wipe the portabella mushrooms with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt before cooking. Avoid rinsing under water as mushrooms absorb moisture and can become soggy.
- Pre-cook the Mushrooms: Briefly pre-cook the portabella mushrooms in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes to help remove excess moisture before adding the toppings.
- Even Topping Distribution: Ensure that the tomato sauce, pepperoni, and cheeses are evenly distributed over the mushrooms to achieve a balanced flavor in every bite.
- Adjust Seasonings: Feel free to adjust the amount of oregano and garlic powder according to your taste preference for a more personalized flavor.
- Watch the Cheese: Keep an eye on the pizzas while they are baking to prevent the cheese from burning. Bake just until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
