Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 4 plain bagels split
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 cup canned crushed tomatoes
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/4 tsp fine salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 6 oz low-moisture mozzarella shredded
  • 3 oz sliced pepperoni

Method
 

  1. Heat oil in a small saucepan over medium. Cook garlic 30 seconds; add tomatoes, oregano, salt, and pepper. Simmer 10 to 12 minutes until thick, stirring frequently.
  2. Heat broiler. Toast bagel halves cut-side up on a sheet 1 to 2 minutes until pale gold.
  3. Spread sauce evenly on four bottom halves, leaving a small border. Add pepperoni and half the mozzarella.
  4. Divide remaining mozzarella among four top halves. Broil all halves cut-side up 2 to 3 minutes, watching constantly, until cheese melts and browns in spots.
  5. Use a spatula to turn cheese-covered tops onto filled bottoms. Rest 2 minutes; halve and serve while cheese is soft.
