How can I create a TOC based on input files?

How can I create a TOC based on input files?

I use mercury-parser to save web pages as clean HTML. I like to merge some of these pages into a single epub. I currently use this command:
pandoc --toc -s *.html -o fruit2.epub
But this creates an empty toc, as the files themselves don’t have whatever formatting hints pandoc uses to detect sections; I’d like to have a toc based on the input file themselves (each input file = a section). How do I go about achieving that?

Sections are constructed based on heading elements. (h1, h2, etc.
in HTML.)

So, assuming your documents have h2s and not h1s, you'd need to
insert an h1 with the title of the chapter in front of each html
file.
