Ingredients
Scale
Pizza Dough:
- 1 pound refrigerated pizza dough
Toppings:
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup pepperoni slices or mini pepperoni
- 1/4 cup black olives, sliced
- 1/2 cup diced bell peppers
- 1/4 cup baby spinach
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet or pizza stone.
- Shape the dough: On a floured surface, shape the pizza dough into a large oval for the bunny’s face and attach two smaller ovals at the top for ears, pinching the dough to secure.
- Prepare the toppings: Brush dough lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with Italian seasoning. Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough. Top with mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
- Decorate the bunny: Use pepperoni for cheeks, olives for eyes, bell peppers for whiskers, and spinach or peppers for the bow tie or accents.
- Bake: Bake for 15 to 18 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve: Allow to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Kids can help decorate the bunny face with their favorite toppings.
- You can use whole wheat or gluten-free dough if preferred.
- Mini naan or flatbreads work well for individual bunny pizzas.
