Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C). If using a toaster oven, set it to bake at the same temperature.
Lightly brush the naan bread with olive oil, especially around the edges to help it crisp up during baking.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the naan bread, leaving about 1/2 inch of space around the edges for the 'crust.'
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.
Arrange the pepperoni slices on top of the cheese. Add more if you'd like extra toppings.
Sprinkle dried oregano and crushed red pepper flakes (if using) over the assembled pizza.
Place the pizza on a baking sheet or directly on the oven rack for a crispier crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 7-8 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the naan are golden brown.
Carefully remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly for 1-2 minutes before slicing or serving.
Enjoy your Quickie Pepperoni Pizza for One while it's warm and delicious!
