Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Carefully split your English muffins in half and place cut-side up on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Spread a generous layer of pizza sauce over each muffin half.
Sprinkle mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauced muffins.
Add your favorite toppings evenly distributed over the cheese.
Bake for 10-15 minutes until the cheese is bubbling and muffins are golden brown.

Carefully remove from the oven and let cool for a minute before serving.
