material
- 6 to 8 Tortillas Depending on the size of your sheet pan and how big you plan to make the quesadilla, or as needed
- 6 to 8 ounce pizza sauce
- 1 the cup (182 g) vegetable Slice thinly. Such as thinly sliced ​​onion, mushroom, pepper. Use more, if you want!
- 1 the cup (112 g) Vegan Mozzarella Cheese Or a combination of mozzarella and cheddar or other cheese of your choice. I usually use a mix of different brands of cheese. I use Chao Original, 365 Mozzarella and Daiya Mozzarella or Cheddar.
- 1/2 Chickpea Chilli Recipe or 12 to 16 slices plant-based pepperoni
- fresh mint or dried basil
- Chilli flakes
instructions
-
Combine all your ingredients and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Place your tortillas so that they overlap each other with no space between them. If there’s room, place another tortilla on the bottom. I usually brush the edges with water where the tortillas overlap so they stick to each other while baking.
-
Spread the pizza sauce in a rectangle or square. Leave 1/2 tortilla uncovered on edge. Top with thinly sliced ​​vegetables and 1/2 vegan cheese, topped with pepperoni, fresh basil (if using) or about 1/2 to 1 teaspoon dried basil. Add pepper flakes as needed, then top with vegan cheese.
-
Fold over the tortillas to cover everything. If there is room in the center, place the tortilla in the center first, then fold the rest of the tortilla.
-
Place another baking sheet or another baking pan over the folded tortilla to hold it in place and place it in the oven to bake at 425°F for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown on all sides. You can brush the tops of the tortillas with oil before putting them in the oven, so they get nicely browned and crispy.
-
Once done remove the top baking sheet and remove the quesadilla baking sheet from the oven. Cut the quesadilla into desired size pieces with a sharp knife and serve.

advice
- You can use gluten free tortillas to keep these gluten free. (The tortillas pictured are wheat based).
- You can fold it yourself, but it’s easier if you have another person to help, especially when it’s time to put the pan on top to weigh it.

How to Make Sheet Pan Pepperoni Pizza Quesadillas
Combine all your ingredients and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place your tortillas so that they overlap each other with no space between them. If there’s room, place another tortilla on the bottom. I usually brush the edges with water where the tortillas overlap so they stick to each other while baking.
Spread the pizza sauce in rectangles or squares. Leave half of the tortilla uncovered.
Top with thinly sliced ​​vegetables and half of the vegan cheese.
Then, top with pepperoni and fresh basil or dried basil.
Add pepper flakes as needed, then top with remaining vegan cheese.
Fold the tortillas in half to cover everything. If there is an opening in the center where the tortillas will not overlap, place another tortilla in the center to cover the opening.
Place another baking sheet or baking pan over the folded tortillas to hold them in place and place the whole thing in the oven to bake at 425°F for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown on all sides. You can brush the top of the tortillas with oil before putting them in the oven, so that they get nicely browned and crispy.
Once done, remove the baking sheet and remove the quesadilla baking sheet from the oven. Cut the quesadilla into desired size pieces with a sharp knife and serve.
