Method

  1. Heat the broiler to high with a rack about 6 inches below it, and line a baking sheet with foil.

  2. Lay the bagel halves cut side up on the sheet and broil until lightly toasted, so they stay crisp under the sauce. Broilers vary, so watch closely.

  3. Spread 1 tbsp sauce over each half, right to the edges but not into the hole. Pile on the mozzarella, then the pepperoni, and sprinkle with oregano.

  4. Broil until the cheese is melted and bubbling with golden spots and the pepperoni edges are curling and crisp.

  5. Let them cool for 1 minute before eating; the cheese is very hot.

Tips

  • Air fryer: toast the halves at 375°F for 2 minutes, add the toppings, then cook for 3 to 4 minutes more until bubbling.
  • Mini bagels make great party bites. Halve the topping per piece and broil for about 2 minutes.
