Tips for the Best Mini Pizza Snacks:
- Toast first for extra crunch: Lightly toast English muffins before adding toppings if you prefer a crispier base.
- Don’t overload toppings: Too many toppings can make the muffins soggy—keep layers light.
- Use parchment paper: Makes cleanup easy and prevents sticking.
- Cool before serving: Let pizzas cool slightly so kids don’t burn their mouths on melted cheese.

Easy Variations & Swaps:
- Veggie Lovers: Add bell peppers, mushrooms, spinach, or tomatoes
- Protein Boost: Use cooked sausage, grilled chicken, or turkey pepperoni
- Whole-Grain Option: Choose whole-grain or high-fiber English muffins
- Dairy-Free: Use dairy-free mozzarella alternatives
- No Basil? Swap in oregano or Italian seasoning
