Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Split the mini bagels (or English muffins) in half and place them cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
Lightly brush the tops of the bagels with olive oil to create a golden, crispy base.
Spread 1-2 teaspoons of pizza sauce over each bagel half, spreading evenly.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce on each bagel.
Top each bagel with mini pepperoni slices and optional toppings like diced bell peppers, sliced olives, or mushrooms.
Sprinkle a pinch of Italian seasoning over each mini pizza bite to enhance the flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and edges are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the mini pizza bites cool for 1-2 minutes before serving.
Enjoy your delicious Mini Pizza Bites!
