Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Place one sheet of phyllo dough onto the baking sheet and lightly brush it with olive oil. Repeat this process with seven more sheets of phyllo dough, brushing each layer with olive oil as you stack them.
Slice the tomatoes into thin rounds and set them aside.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top layer of the phyllo dough, leaving about 1 inch of space around the edges.
Arrange the tomato slices over the cheese in a single layer.
Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the tomatoes, followed by the salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Bake the phyllo pizza in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crisp.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
Slice into squares or wedges and enjoy immediately while the phyllo is still crispy.
