Ingredients
  

4 mini whole wheat pita breads

1 cup marinara sauce (or your preferred pizza sauce)

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup pepperoni slices (or assorted toppings: diced bell peppers, sliced mushrooms, black olives, etc.)

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)

Olive oil for brushing

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it’s hot enough for baking.

    Prepare the Pita Bases: Arrange the mini pita breads on a baking sheet with the cut side facing upward. This will help hold the toppings.

      Add Sauce: Take a tablespoon of marinara sauce and spread it evenly across the surface of each pita, covering it well but not too thickly.

        Layer the Cheese: Generously sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce, ensuring each pita is sufficiently covered for a cheesy delight.

          Add Toppings: Distribute your selected toppings over the cheese. If using pepperoni, ensure they're evenly spaced for balanced flavor on each pita. You can get creative with your toppings!

            Season: Sprinkle a pinch of grated Parmesan cheese, dried oregano, and garlic powder evenly across all the pizza stacks to enhance the flavor.

              Brush with Olive Oil: Using a pastry brush, lightly coat the edges of the pita breads with olive oil. This will promote crispiness during baking.

                Bake: Slide the baking sheet into the preheated oven and bake for approximately 10-12 minutes. Keep an eye out for the cheese to be melted and bubbly, and the edges of the pitas to be lightly golden.

                  Garnish and Serve: Once baked, remove the mini pizzas from the oven and let them cool for about a minute. If desired, garnish with fresh basil leaves for a pop of color and flavor. Slice each pita into quarters and serve them warm for a delightful bite-sized treat.
