In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Mix until the seasoning is evenly distributed.
Divide the beef mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each into a small patty.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, cook the beef patties for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked through. Remove the patties from the skillet and set aside.
Preheat the broiler in your oven. Place the mini burger buns on a baking sheet with the cut sides facing up.
Spread about 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce on the bottom half of each bun. Place a cooked patty on top of the sauce.
Sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of shredded mozzarella cheese over each patty, and top with 2 pepperoni slices.
Place the baking sheet under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep a close eye to avoid burning.
Remove the buns from the oven and place the top halves on each burger. Serve immediately and enjoy your Quick Pizza Burgers!
