  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.

  2. 2

    In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and shredded mozzarella. Add Italian seasoning and stir until the mixture is smooth and cohesive.

  3. 3

    Brush the baguette slices on both sides with olive oil and arrange them in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

  4. 4

    Spread a thin layer of the cheese mixture onto each baguette slice, creating a small cheese bed on which to place toppings.

  5. 5

    Place a pepperoni slice on top of the cheese on each baguette slice.

  6. 6

    Bake for 6-8 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the baguette edges are golden.

  7. 7

    Remove from oven and transfer the bites to a serving platter. Insert a toothpick into each bite for easy picking.

  8. 8

    Warm the marinara sauce slightly and serve alongside the bites as a dipping sauce. Garnish the platter with chopped parsley.
