Description
A fun, festive pizza shaped like a Jack O’Lantern for Halloween.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pre-made pizza crust (about 12 inches)
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup sliced black olives
- 1/2 small bell pepper, thinly sliced (for eyes and mouth)
- 1/4 small carrot, thinly sliced (for stem)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven according to the pizza crust package directions, usually around 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Place the pizza crust on a baking sheet.
- Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the crust, leaving a small border for the pumpkin shape.
- Sprinkle the mozzarella and cheddar cheese over the sauce.
- Arrange the black olive slices to form eyes and a mouth shape on the pizza surface.
- Place the thin slices of bell pepper to complete the facial features.
- Place the carrot slice at the top center to represent the pumpkin stem.
- Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing.
Notes
- You can use pepperoni or other toppings to fill in the rest of the pumpkin shape if desired.
- For a sharper orange color, use orange bell peppers instead of red or yellow for the face features.
