Description
Easy Mini Halloween Pizzas are festive treats made with flour tortillas, pizza sauce, cheese, and fun toppings, perfect for parties or themed family dinners.
Ingredients
- 6 flour tortillas (cut into 4 ½ to 5-inch circles)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- ½ cup pizza sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 slices cheddar cheese (for pumpkin designs)
- Black olives (for eyes, smiles, and spiders)
- 1 slice tomato (for mummy base)
- 1 small piece bell pepper (for pumpkin stem)
Instructions
- Cut tortillas into circles (4 ½ to 5 inches wide). Brush both sides with olive oil. Heat each side in a skillet until golden and crispy, about 2–3 minutes per side.
- Spread 2 teaspoons of pizza sauce on each tortilla crust and place on a lined baking sheet.
- Add shredded mozzarella to one or two pizzas (for the spider base). Leave others plain for decorative cutouts.
- Bake at 400°F for 6 minutes until the cheese is melted and sauce bubbly. Remove from oven.
- Decorate: Mummy: Layer strips of mozzarella over a slice of tomato, add olive eyes. Pumpkin: Cut cheddar cheese with a pumpkin cutter, add olive or pepper pieces for the face and stem. Ghosts: Cut mozzarella slices with ghost-shaped cutters, add olive eyes. Spider: Use one halved olive for the body and sliced olives for legs. Faces: Use sliced olives and veggies to make smiling faces.
- Return pizzas to the oven for 1 minute, just until cheese cutouts begin to melt slightly. Remove before designs lose definition.
Notes
Use thin flour tortillas for a crispier crust. Add decorative toppings after the first bake to keep shapes sharp and defined. Experiment with different cheeses or veggies to create your own Halloween pizza characters.
