This is one of the best Halloween treat recipes to make with the kids. It's just too easy! Let each kid assemble and devour his or her own mummy. Or assemble them ahead of time for a Halloween party and cook right before serving. This cute but creepy Halloween recipe is a fun addition to your Halloween table.
In the instructions below, we have you toast the top of the muffins before adding toppings to keep them from getting soggy. Don't feel like doing the extra step? They turn out great if you don't toast the tops, too. These little pizzas are also great with sliced pepperoni. Just add the pepperoni before the cheese so you don't cover up your mummy's bandages.
Ingredients:
1 pkg. (6 count) English muffins (12 halves)
3/4 C. prepared pizza sauce
12 slices mozzarella cheese
24 black olive slices
Green bell pepper, chopped into 1/4" pieces
Instructions: 1. Preheat your oven's broiler
2. Split each English muffin and broil (tops only) until crisp and golden.
3. Remove muffins from oven. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
4. Cut your mozzarella cheese slices into muffin-sized mummy bandages.
5. Spread about a tablespoon of pizza sauce on each muffin half.
6. Top with cheese "bandages."
7. Place two black olive slices on each pizza for eyes. Give each eye a piece of green pepper for a pupil.
8. Bake about 10 minutes, until muffin is crisp and cheese is melted.
Note: You can also do this with homemade or store-bought pizza dough. Simply cut into small rounds with a drinking glass or a biscuit cutter, and prepare as directed here (no toasting, of course). Raw dough may need an extra couple of minutes in the oven.
