Ingredients
  

Pizza Crusts and Sauce
  • 8 pieces mini pizza crusts (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 cup pizza sauce
Cheese and Toppings
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 8 slices mozzarella cheese (for ghost shapes)
  • 12 slices pepperoni
  • 1 small black olive (sliced for eyes)
  • 1 piece orange bell pepper (cut into pumpkin shapes)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. Place the mini pizza crusts on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly.
  4. Spread pizza sauce evenly over each crust using the back of a spoon or a spatula.
Creating Shapes
  1. For ghost-shaped pizzas, cut ghost shapes from the mozzarella cheese slices and place them over the sauce. Add small pieces of black olive for eyes.
  2. For mummy-style pizzas, layer strips of mozzarella cheese over the sauce in a criss-cross pattern, leaving some sauce visible, and place olive slices for eyes.
  3. For jack-o'-lantern pizzas, top the crusts with shredded cheese and arrange orange bell pepper slices to create pumpkin faces.
Baking
  1. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the crust is golden.
  2. Once baked, carefully take the mini pizzas out of the oven, let them cool for a minute, and serve warm.

Notes

Leftover mini pizzas can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days. For freezing, assemble and freeze unbaked pizzas, then wrap and store for up to 2 months.
