Ingredients
Method
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Arrange the mini bagels, cut-side up, on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Spoon a thin layer of pizza sauce over each bagel half, spreading it evenly.
- Sprinkle shredded cheese over the sauce-covered bagels.
- Place a slice of turkey pepperoni on top of each bagel half.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 6 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the pepperoni is lightly browned.
- Once done, remove from the oven and let the mini pizza bagels cool slightly before serving.
Notes
Pro Tips
- Toast the Bagels First: For extra crunch, toast the mini bagels lightly before adding toppings. This helps prevent them from becoming soggy during baking.
- Prep Toppings in Advance: Chop any additional toppings like veggies or meats ahead of time for quick assembly.
- Customize to Taste: Don't be afraid to get creative with toppings! Try different combinations like BBQ chicken, Hawaiian, or veggie-loaded options.
- Bagel Varieties: Swap traditional mini bagels for whole wheat, multigrain, or even pretzel bagels for a unique twist on flavor and texture.
- English Muffins: Use split English muffins instead of bagels for a smaller, more bite-sized option.
- Gluten-Free Options: Opt for gluten-free bagels, English muffins, or flatbreads to accommodate dietary restrictions without sacrificing flavor.
