Description
Create festive Mini Snowman Pizzas that bring holiday cheer with adorable snowman shapes and delicious toppings. Perfect for winter gatherings, these easy-to-make pizzas combine simple ingredients with creative fun for the whole family to enjoy.
Ingredients
Base
- Pizza dough (store-bought or homemade, enough for multiple snowmen)
- Pizza sauce (tomato-based, enough to spread thinly on each snowman)
- Shredded mozzarella cheese (generous amount for each pizza)
Decorations
- Black olives, sliced (for eyes and buttons)
- Mini pepperoni or cooked sausage pieces (for scarves and mouth)
- Sliced bell peppers or carrots (for noses, scarves, and arms)
- Fresh basil or parsley (for garnishing)
Instructions
- Prepare the dough: Roll out your pizza dough on a floured surface and use a round cookie cutter or glass to cut out three different-sized circles (small, medium, and large) for each snowman’s body.
- Assemble the snowman shapes: Place the three dough circles vertically on a parchment-lined baking sheet, close enough so their edges just touch, forming the shape of a snowman.
- Add the sauce and cheese: Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over each snowman shape, leaving a small border around the edges. Then, generously sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
- Decorate your snowman: Use sliced black olives for eyes and buttons, small pepperoni or sausage pieces for the mouth and scarf, and thinly sliced bell peppers or carrots for noses and arms.
- Bake until golden: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and bake the Mini Snowman Pizzas for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
- Final touches: Once out of the oven, garnish the snowmen with fresh herbs like basil or parsley for added color and freshness before serving.
Notes
- Keep the dough thin enough to bake evenly but thick enough to hold toppings without sogginess.
- Use parchment paper on the baking sheet to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
- Pre-slice and prepare all toppings before assembling to speed up decorating.
- Watch the oven closely to avoid burning, as small pizzas cook quickly.
- Use small cookie cutters or kitchen tweezers for precise placement of delicate toppings.
