Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) if you prefer warm bites, or serve cold.
Place one basil leaf on each mozzarella ball.
Wrap each mozzarella ball with one slice of prosciutto, securing the basil inside.
If baking, arrange the wrapped bites on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over each bite if desired.
Bake for 8-10 minutes until the prosciutto is crisp and mozzarella is slightly melted.
Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes.
Drizzle with balsamic glaze and freshly ground black pepper before serving.

Notes

For a fresh and easy no-cook option, serve the bites chilled without baking, perfect for entertaining.
