Description
A fun, savory pizza shaped and decorated 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 orange bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup sliced pepperoni (optional)
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 edge.
- Sprinkle the mozzarella and cheddar cheeses over the sauce.
- Arrange the orange bell pepper slices on the pizza to form the eyes, nose, and mouth of a Jack O’Lantern face.
- Use the black olive slices to outline the features or create additional details.
- Place pepperoni slices on the pizza if you are using them.
- 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 and serving.
Notes
- You can use ricotta cheese mixed with a little orange food coloring for a brighter orange color if desired.
- For a crispier crust, pre-bake the crust for 5 minutes before adding toppings.
