Oven Method
Preheat the oven to 390F / 200C.
Line two baking trays with greaseproof paper. Arrange the pepperoni slices (12 per tray) with a little space between them. If flavouring, add now (see notes).
Bake in the oven for 6 - 8 minutes. Careful not to burn and don’t overcook as they will crisp up when cooled.
Remove the pepperoni crisps from the oven and pat dry with kitchen paper.
Makes 24 pepperoni chips. Serves 6 (4 chips per snack)
