Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Wash and dry the zucchinis. Slice each one into 1/4-inch thick rounds to form your "pizza bases."

Bake the zucchini slices in the preheated oven for 5 minutes, until they are slightly softened.
Step 6
Remove the zucchini from the oven and spread a small spoonful of low-carb marinara sauce over each slice.
Step 7
Top each slice with shredded mozzarella cheese and optionally add pepperoni slices or any other toppings of your choice.
Step 8
Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 9
If desired, sprinkle red chili flakes and garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
Step 10
Allow to cool slightly and serve warm. Enjoy your low-carb zucchini pizza!
