1 Preheat the oven to 400˚F.
2 For each half of a bagel, evenly spread 1 tablespoon pizza sauce. Top each with about 1 ounce of cheese and dot with a few mini pepperonis (or just divide the cheese an pepperoni between the bagels). Top all your bagel halves just like this. You should have 8. Lightly sprinkle each pizza bagel with a pinch of dried basil.
3 Bake them for 8 to 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the bagels are crispy around the edges. Serve them warm. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for 3 to 4 days. Reheat in a 350°F oven until warmed through. Did you love the recipe? Give us some stars and leave a comment below!
