Ingredients
| 2 Rollen (ca. 400 g) | Pizza dough (ready-rolled) |
| 200 g | Passata (strained tomatoes) |
| 250 g | Mozzarella |
| 50 g | Black olives (pitted) |
| 1 | Bell pepper (red) |
| 1 TL | Oregano (dried) |
| 1 EL | Olive oil |
| etwas | Salt |
| nach Geschmack | Pepper |
Preparation
Step by step through the recipe
- 1 Preheat the oven to 220 °C top/bottom heat and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 2 Roll out 2 rolls (approx. 400 g) of pizza dough and cut out 8 circles of about 10 cm in diameter using a glass or cookie cutter. Place the dough circles on the baking sheet, roll out the dough scraps again and cut out more circles.
- 3 Mix 200 g passata with 1 EL olive oil, 1 TL oregano, a little salt and pepper to taste. Spread the 8 dough circles thinly with it, leaving a border of about 1 cm free.
- 4 Drain 250 g mozzarella and tear into strips. From the strips, shape a ghost body on each mini pizza: wide at the bottom, tapering to a point at the top, with pointy arms.
- 5 Halve 50 g black olives and press two halves each into the mozzarella ghosts as eyes.
- 6 Remove the seeds from 1 red bell pepper and cut into fine strips. Place the strips as pumpkin and moon decorations between the ghosts on the mini pizzas.
- 7 Bake the mini pizzas in the preheated oven at 220 °C for about 10–12 minutes, until the mozzarella has melted and the edges are golden brown.
- 8 Take the ghost pizzas out of the oven, let them cool briefly and serve while still warm.
Notes & tips
Note: Contains milk (mozzarella) and gluten (pizza dough). Variation: With vegan grated cheese or a plant-based mozzarella substitute and vegan pizza dough, the ghost pizza turns out completely vegan. Shortcut: Ready-rolled pizza dough from the refrigerated section saves time — the dough circles can also be cut out with a glass. Kids' workshop: Roll out the dough scraps again and shape them into little ghosts or bats; the mini pizzas also taste good cold the next day.
