Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
Slice each mini bell pepper in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes using a small knife or spoon.
Place the pepper halves on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Drizzle the olive oil over the pepper halves and toss lightly to ensure they're well-coated. Arrange them cut-side up on the baking sheet.
Spoon a small amount of low-carb pizza sauce into each bell pepper half, spreading it evenly.
Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce in each pepper half.
Lay one or two slices of pepperoni on top of the cheese in each pepper half, depending on their size.
Lightly sprinkle the Italian seasoning over the top of the pepperoni.
Bake the prepared mini pepperoni pizzas in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and is bubbly, and the peppers are tender but still crisp.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes. Garnish each mini pizza with a fresh basil leaf before serving.
