Step-by-Step Instructions for Prosciutto Wrapped Mozzarella Bites
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Lay out your prosciutto slices on a clean cutting board, ensuring they are flat and without overlap.
  3. Drain the mozzarella balls on a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
  4. If your mozzarella balls are large, cut each in half for easier wrapping.
  5. Place a mozzarella ball in the center of each prosciutto slice and fold the prosciutto around it snugly.
  6. Heat olive oil in a small pan, add oregano, garlic powder, and black pepper, and let infuse for 30 seconds.
  7. Brush each prosciutto-wrapped mozzarella bite with the seasoned olive oil mixture.
  8. Arrange the wrapped bites on the prepared baking sheet with space between each.
  9. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the prosciutto is golden brown.
  10. Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and garnish with fresh basil before serving.
