Ingredients

4 English muffins sliced in half
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 tablespoons marinara sauce
1/3 cup shredded Italian blend cheese
½ cup of mini pepperonis
2 teaspoons dried oregano
4 leaves fresh basil roughly chopped

Instructions

Preheat the oven to broil. Place the English muffin halves onto a baking sheet and drizzle them with olive oil.
Broil the English muffins for 2-5 minutes until the English muffins just begin to brown. The time under the broiler will vary depending on each oven. You do not want to burn the English muffins.
Remove the English muffins from the oven and spread around 2 teaspoons of marinara sauce onto each English muffin half.
Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of shredded cheese on top of the sauce and then evenly spread the pepperonis on top of the shredded cheese. Finally, season with around ⅛ teaspoon dried oregano.
Change the temperature of the oven to 375ºF and place the english muffin pizza back into the oven and bake them for 8-10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and begins to brown.
Remove the pizzas from the oven and garnish them with fresh basil.

Notes

For the Italian blend, feel free to use mozzarella cheese or a mixture of mozzarella, romano, parmesan, and asiago.
