Ingredients

  • 1 pizza dough
  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

  3. Using a knife or pizza cutter, cut the dough into long, thin strips.
  4. Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
  5. Place the strips of dough on top of the sauce, crisscrossing them to create the mummy bandages.
  6. Leave a small space for the 'face' of the mummy.
  7. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the dough, covering it completely.
  8. Add two pepperoni slices as eyes on the 'face' of the mummy.
  9. If desired, use black olives to create additional facial features, such as a mouth or eyebrows.
  10. Bake the mummy pizza in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden.
  11. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy this spooky and delicious mummy pizza!
