Is it possible to make pizza more fun? This spooky treat is as much fun to make as it is to eat – play with the ingredients to make it your own. The possibilities are endless.
Preheat oven to 400°F.
On a lightly floured surface, divide the doughball in half with a dough scraper or knife. Knead, stretch and shape each half into long ovals, about 12-inches long and 10-inches wide.
Spread your pizza sauce in the middle, leaving about 3 inches on both sides. Layer cheese and pepperoni over the sauce.
Along the sides of the pizza, cut one-inch strips with kitchen shears or a knife, close but not all the way to where the sauce and toppings are.
Starting from the bottom of the pizza, tuck up the excess dough over the toppings and begin crisscrossing the strips over and across the pizza, overlapping like a shoelace. Some gaps are fine, just like a mummy’s wrapping.
When you reach the “face,” create more of a half-circle opening, exposing the pepperoni and cheese. Finish wrapping, and create a bit of a twist at the top of the pizza and fold it over. Add two sliced olives as eyes and place in the oven.
Cook for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown. Admire your spooky pizza, then slice and enjoy!
