Halloween pizza ideas
There are so many things to love about Halloween. But one of my favorite parts of the holiday is the food. Creating unique Halloween-themed dishes is a great way to celebrate the holiday. And these mummy pizzas are a great choice when searching for a fun Halloween dish.
Whether you’re looking for a cute Halloween dinner idea or a fun party appetizer, these simple pizzas are perfect! The best part about these adorable mummy pizzas is how simple they are to make. You only need five ingredients (plus toppings if you desire) to put them together. And you can have them done and on the table in less than 30 minutes.
These mini mummy pizzas are the perfect size for eating without cutting them and messing up the fun mummy design on top! And they’re great for lunch, dinner, or a snack – which means they’re a must-make Halloween treat!
To make your own mummy pizzas, you’ll need a package of premade pizza crust (or your favorite pizza dough recipe), a jar of marinara sauce (or your favorite homemade marinara sauce recipe), string cheese, black olives, and your favorite pizza toppings.
Start by preparing your pizza crust by unrolling the dough on a flat surface. Using a four-inch round cookie or biscuit cutter, cut out eight mini pizzas from the dough. Transfer each mini pizza crust to a greased baking sheet and bake for five minutes or until the crust is just beginning to brown.

Remove the crusts from the oven and top with marinara sauce. If you prefer to make cheese mummy pizzas, continue to the next step now. Otherwise, add your favorite toppings to the top of the marinara sauce. Placing the toppings under the cheese will ensure your pizzas look like mummies without toppings interfering with the cheese bandages.
Now it’s time to turn your plain, boring pizzas into mummy pizzas! Start by preparing your cheese. Peel strands of cheese off your string cheese pieces, varying the thickness and length of each piece. Then, add the cheese to the top of the pizzas in random places to create a rustic mummy look with the string cheese.
When you’re satisfied with the look of the cheese and after the entire pizza is covered, place two black olive slices on top of the cheese to serve as the mummy’s eyes. Place the pizza back in the oven for a few more minutes. Allow the cheese to melt and the sauce to bubble before removing the pizzas from the oven. Let the pizzas rest for a few minutes before serving.
