Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, self-rising flour, whey protein powder, and salt. Mix until a dough forms.
On a floured surface, knead the dough for about 5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and press down into mini bagel shapes (about 2 inches wide).
Place the bagel shapes onto the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg white and olive oil together. Brush the tops of each bagel with this mixture.
Bake the bagels in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven.
Add a teaspoon of marinara sauce to each bagel top, spreading it evenly.
Sprinkle a tablespoon of shredded mozzarella cheese on each bagel bite.
Top each bagel bite with three slices of turkey pepperoni.
Return the bagel bites to the oven and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired before serving.
