_Sips coffee_ Ladies and gents, let me tell you about my absolute favorite midnight craving that’ll make your taste buds do a happy dance! I’m talking about my legendary Loaded Pizza Bagel Bites – but trust me, these aren’t your average frozen bagel bites from the grocery store.
Picture this: It’s midnight, you’re binge-watching your favorite show, and suddenly that hunger hits. We’ve all been there, right? Instead of reaching for those boring chips, let me show you how to whip up something that’ll make your Instagram followers drool.
What you’ll need (because we’re fancy like that):
– 2 plain bagels, sliced in half
– 4 tablespoons pizza sauce
– 1 cup shredded mozzarella
– 8 pepperoni slices
– 2 tablespoons butter, melted
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– Italian seasoning
– Optional toppings: diced bell peppers, mushrooms, or whatever your heart desires!
Now, honey, let me walk you through this magic (it’s literally foolproof, I promise!):
1. First, preheat your broiler. We’re getting fancy in here!
2. Slice those bagels and brush them with that melted butter-garlic mixture. Trust me, this step is everything!
3. Pop them under the broiler for 2 minutes until they’re slightly toasted and golden brown.
4. Spread that pizza sauce like you’re painting a masterpiece.
5. Load up with cheese (and I mean LOAD UP – we’re not counting calories at midnight!)
6. Add your pepperoni and any other toppings.
7. Back under the broiler for 3-4 minutes until that cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.
