Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Place the English muffin halves on the prepared baking sheet with the cut side facing up.

Step 3

Lightly brush the tops of each English muffin half with olive oil to prevent sogginess.

Spread about 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce on each muffin half, adjusting as needed to cover the surface.

Step 5

Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce on each muffin half.

Step 6

Add your desired toppings: place 2-3 pepperoni slices on some, sprinkle diced bell peppers on others, or add a few sliced black olives as desired.

Step 7

Lightly sprinkle the tops with Italian seasoning for added flavor.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges of the muffins are slightly crispy.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let the mini pizzas cool for 2-3 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm and enjoy your mini baked pizzas!
