In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and Italian seasoning until evenly combined.
Add the milk and the egg to the dry ingredients. Whisk until the batter is smooth and lump-free.
Fold in the shredded mozzarella cheese, diced pepperoni, chopped bell peppers, and black olives (if using). Mix until the toppings are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with oil or butter.
Pour about 1/3 cup of batter onto the heated skillet and gently spread it into a thick pancake shape using the back of a spoon or ladle.
Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, or until bubbles form on the surface and the bottom is golden brown. Flip and cook the other side for another 2 minutes.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as needed between batches.
Serve warm with a side of pizza sauce for dipping or spreading.
