Ingredients You'll Need
Pizza Dough
The base of any good pizza is the dough, and for our Halloween pizza, we recommend using whole wheat or gluten-free dough for a healthier option. You can also make your own dough from scratch using flour, yeast, water, and salt for a more personalized touch.
Pizza Sauce
For a spooky touch, we suggest using tomato sauce with a few drops of red food coloring to give it a blood-like appearance. You can also add in some Italian herbs and spices for extra flavor.
Toppings
Now for the fun part – the toppings! You can get creative here and use whatever toppings you like, but for a Halloween-themed pizza, we recommend using black olives, green peppers, and onions for a festive color combination. You can also add some pepperoni slices to represent eyes or a mouth on your pizza.
Cheese
No pizza is complete without cheese, and for our Halloween pizza, we recommend using mozzarella cheese for that classic pizza flavor. You can also use cheddar cheese for a more vibrant orange color.
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
If you're using store-bought dough, follow the instructions on the package. If you're making your own dough, mix together the ingredients until a smooth dough forms. Let it rise for about an hour before rolling it out into a circular shape.
Step 2: Add the Sauce and Toppings
Spread the tomato sauce onto the dough, leaving some space around the edges for the crust. Next, add on your chosen toppings, arranging them in a fun and spooky design.
Step 3: Add the Cheese
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese on top of the pizza, covering all the toppings.
Step 4: Bake and Decorate
Bake the pizza in the oven at 375°F for 15-20 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Once it's done, let it cool for a few minutes before adding any additional decorations, such as ghost-shaped pepperoni slices or spiderweb designs using black olives.
