Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, whisk together almond flour and baking powder and set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth.
Add the egg, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and almond flour mixture to the melted cheese. Mix until a dough forms.
Divide the dough into four equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and gently flatten each into a bagel shape, creating a small hole in the center.
Place the shaped bagels onto the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with olive oil.
Bake the bagels for about 10 minutes, or until they begin to turn golden.
Remove the bagels from the oven. Spread approximately 2 tablespoons of pizza sauce on each bagel.
Top with pepperoni slices, bell pepper, red onion, black olives, and additional mozzarella cheese.
Return the topped bagels to the oven and bake for another 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired and serve warm.
