Ingredients

• 4 pieces Large portabella mushroom caps
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 cup Marinara sauce
• 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 20 pieces Pepperoni slices (optional)
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 4 pieces Fresh basil leaves (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

Step 2

Clean the portabella mushroom caps by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel. Remove the stems and use a small spoon to scrape out the gills if desired.

Step 3

Brush the mushroom caps with olive oil on both sides and sprinkle them with salt and black pepper. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, gill side up.

Step 4

Bake the mushroom caps in the preheated oven for 8 minutes to release some moisture. Remove them from the oven and carefully pat them dry with a paper towel if needed.

Step 5

Spread approximately 2 tablespoons of marinara sauce inside each mushroom cap, covering the surface evenly.

Step 6

Sprinkle about 1/4 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce on each mushroom cap. Add a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese for extra flavor.

Step 7

If desired, add 4-5 slices of pepperoni or your favorite toppings to each mushroom cap. Sprinkle a pinch of Italian seasoning over the top.

Step 8

Return the mushroom pizzas to the oven and bake for an additional 7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 9

Remove the portabella pizzas from the oven and let them cool slightly. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful, healthy portabella pizzas!
