Halloween Mini Mummy Pizzas

My kids used to really enjoy themed food around the holidays. They thought it was fun to make these Easy Mummy Pizzas at Halloween, the ideal dinner before they headed out trick or treating. I cherish those moments, when we would make these fun meals together.

These Halloween Mini Mummy Pizzas are really easy to make which means the children can each make their own mini pizza for themselves, exactly how they like them.

This recipe is for the basic pizza as seen above, but you can personalize it to their preferences. I’ve made some suggestions for varying the recipe later in this post.

How to make Mummy Pizzas

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Open the can of biscuits, and place them on a large baking sheet. (If they’re sticking, just place some parchment paper underneath).
Using your hands, press the biscuit out into a flat circle, or use a small rolling pin to make them flat.
Repeat the process until all of the biscuits are flattened out.

Next, spoon the desired amount of sauce onto each flattened biscuit, the average amount is 2-3 tablespoons per pizza.
Next, add 2 sliced olives to the top, to serve as the eyes.
If you’re adding any additional ingredients, like sliced pepperoni, hide them here before you add the cheese bandages.

Using a very sharp knife, on a cutting board, slice each mozzarella stick into long, thin slices.
Vary the size and length, so they can serve as the mummy wrap!
I use about one mozzarella stick per pizza, though you can adjust that as well, to meet your preference.
Once each mummy is perfectly topped, to the desired preference of it’s recipient, place the baking pan into the oven, and let them bake about 12-15 minutes until the cheese has melted and the crust is golden brown.

Mummy Pizzas recipe ingredients

To prepare these Halloween Mini Mummy Pizzas you’ll need:

BISCUITS: I use 1 can of biscuits (8 count) as the pizza base.
SAUCE: for ease I like to use a jar of my favorite pizza sauce, but you can make your own if you prefer.
OLIVES: I use sliced black olives to make the Mummy’s eyes.
CHEESE: mozzarella sticks are sliced up to make the bandages.

Flavor variations

To personalize them, you can add any additional ingredients that you’d like. I like pepperoni, so I add a couple of slices to my pizza.
The kids like bacon, onion, and hamburger, so we add a small amount to each of theirs.
If you like your pizza extra cheesy you can add a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese, which won’t affect the overall look of the pizzas too much.
I’ve used a can of biscuits for the pizza base, but you could also use store bought pizza bases.

Recipe hints and tips

If your oven tends to brown things on the bottom of the pan faster than the top, parchment paper will help prevent that as well.
When I’m baking to photograph on the pan, I don’t use it, but for everyday cooking, I almost always use parchment paper.

FAQs

What cheese is best for topping Easy Mummy Pizzas?

I like to use mozzarella cheese when topping pizzas as mozzarella melts well. If you want to make your pizzas extra cheesy, sprinkle over some Parmesan cheese.

Can Halloween Mummy Pizzas be made ahead?

If hosting a Halloween party and you want to get ahead, you can prepare the Mummy Pizzas earlier in the day, then cover the tray with some kitchen foil and place them in the refrigerator. Then when the party is in full swing, you can take the pizzas from the refrigerator and place them into the hot oven to bake before serving.
