2-3 oz pepperoni (optional; omit for vegetarian, or swap your favorite toppings)
3 tbsp butter, melted
1 garlic clove, minced
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400F (205C). Stir the minced garlic into the melted butter. Add 1 tbsp of the garlic butter to a blender; use the rest to thoroughly grease each well of a mini or regular muffin tin (a jumbo tin won't set well).
Add the cottage cheese, eggs, 4 oz mozzarella, salt and tapioca flour to the blender. Pour the tapioca in carefully and close to the surface so it doesn't mushroom-cloud everywhere. Blend on high until super smooth, about 1 minute.
Fill each muffin well about halfway (overfilling stops them setting). Add a teaspoon of pizza sauce to the center of each, top with pepperoni and about 1 tbsp cheese.
Bake 20-30 minutes until puffed and deep golden brown. Undercooked bites taste great but fall as they cool. Serve with warmed pizza sauce.
