Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Brush each piece of pita bread lightly with olive oil and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Spread about 2 tablespoons of pizza sauce evenly over each pita, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce on each pita.
Arrange 4 pepperoni slices and a handful of sliced bell peppers on each pizza. Add additional toppings if desired.
Sprinkle a pinch of dried oregano, salt, and black pepper over each pita pizza for added flavor.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges of the pita are golden brown.
Remove the pizzas from the oven and let them cool slightly for 1-2 minutes.
Garnish each pita pizza with a sprinkle of fresh chopped basil before serving.
Serve immediately and enjoy your quick and delicious pita pizzas!
