Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or an inverted baking sheet on the middle rack to heat.
On a lightly floured surface, stretch the whole wheat pizza dough into a 12-inch round. It's best to work from the center and let gravity do its part.
Spray a piece of parchment paper lightly with olive oil spray and place the dough on it.
Spread the low-sodium tomato pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving about a 1-inch border for the crust.
Sprinkle the shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese evenly on top of the sauce.
Arrange the turkey pepperoni slices evenly over the cheese.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the pizza and add the dried oregano.
Carefully transfer the parchment paper with the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven.
Bake the pizza for 10-12 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving. Enjoy your low-fat New York-style pepperoni pizza!
