# How to Make It:
01 -
Get your oven heating to 375°F and cover a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.
02 -
Carefully lay out each slice of prosciutto on a clean surface, making sure they’re not stuck together.
03 -
Drain the moisture off your mozzarella balls and cut the bigger ones in half so they’re easier to wrap.
04 -
Put a mozzarella ball or half right in the middle of a prosciutto slice and roll it up snugly.
05 -
Warm the olive oil in a small pan on medium. Toss in oregano, garlic powder, and black pepper, stir for 30 seconds till it smells great, then take it off the heat.
06 -
Use a brush or spoon to spread that seasoned oil all over each prosciutto-covered mozzarella piece.
07 -
Place the wrapped bites on your baking sheet with some space between them. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the prosciutto is crispy and golden.
08 -
Take them out of the oven, let cool a bit, and if you want, sprinkle chopped basil on top.
09 -
Serve these warm and dig in right away.
