Ingredients
Instructions
1. Preheat Your Oven and Prepare Flatbreads: Begin by preheating your oven to 400 F (200 C). If desired, lightly brush the edges of your flatbreads with olive oil for a crispier crust. Place the flatbreads directly on a baking sheet.
2. Spread the Sauce Evenly: Spoon about 1/4 cup of pizza sauce onto each flatbread. Use the back of the spoon to spread it evenly across the surface, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.
3. Layer on the Cheese: Generously sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce on each flatbread. This will be the base for your spooky decorations.
4. Add Your Spooky Toppings: Now for the fun part! Get creative with your Halloween-themed toppings. For “mummy” pizzas, arrange strips of mozzarella over the sauce and cheese to look like bandages, leaving a space for “eyes.” For “spiderweb” designs, create a spiral with a thin stream of sauce over the cheese, then drag a toothpick from the center outwards to form a web. Use sliced black olives for spider bodies or eyes, and thin strips of green bell pepper for Frankenstein stitches or monster hair. Pepperoni slices can be cut into bat shapes or arranged to look like creepy faces.
5. Bake Until Golden and Bubbly: Place the baking sheet with the topped flatbreads into the preheated oven. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the crusts are golden brown and slightly crispy. Keep an eye on them to prevent over-browning.
6. Cool Slightly and Serve: Carefully remove the pizzas from the oven. Let them cool for a minute or two before slicing and serving. This allows the cheese to set slightly, making them easier to cut and handle.
7. Garnish for Extra Flair (Optional): If you used fresh basil, sprinkle some torn leaves over the finished pizzas for a pop of color and fresh flavor.
