Halloween Pizza

This easy Halloween pizza with the cutest Jack O’Lantern face is the best easy halloween dinner and will be a hit with kids and adults alike.

This is a great DIY dinner idea for halloween party since everyone can assemble their own pizzas and design their own Jack-o-lantern faces. It’s also a cute idea for lunchboxes if you do mini versions, like I’ve done. Use store-bought pizza bases and get decorating!

Ingredients and Substitutions

• Store-bought pizza crust. Feel free to make your own pizza dough with flour, yeast, warm water and olive oil but I prefer using store-bought crust.
• Pizza sauce.
• Mozzarella cheese. Use any good melting cheese of your choice, cheddar cheese is also a good option.
• Salami. You could use pepperoni too but I find salami easier to cut into shapes.
• Other toppings: Use black olives for eyes or slices of green bell pepper for the mouth if you want to play around with creating funny faces.

How to make Halloween pizza

1. Cut the salami into shapes for the eyes, nose and mouth. You could also cut out other halloween shapes like pumpkins or ghosts (use ghost-shaped cookie cutters) or create little spiders out of black olives. Kitchen scissors are definitely the easiest to use but a sharp knife will also work.
2. Spread the pizza sauce onto the pizza bases then top with the cheese. Create your face using the salami.
3. Bake the pizzas in a hot oven until the cheese has just melted and the base is crisp. Remove from the oven and serve.
