Easy Easter Pizza for Kids
This super fun easter pizza is great for the kids. Make a easter bunny pizza using these simple instructions and ingredients.
Ingredients
- 9 oz Pizza Dough
- 10 Pitted Olives Or Black Olives
- 2 To 3 tablespoon Marinara Sauce
- 15 Mini Mozzarella Balls
- 2 To 3 oz Cheese With Classic Flavor
- 4 Cherry Tomatoes
- Leeks Dill - a little.
Instructions
- Separate the Dough for the Bunny Ears: Separate 2 ounces from the dough for the "ears" of the bunnies. Roll out the rest of the dough into a circle about 0.2 inch thick on a lightly floured surface. Place the dough on parchment paper.
- Grate the Cheese: Grate the cheese on a coarse grater. Place around the edge of the scone. Form a rim as shown in the photo.
- Top the Easter Pizza Crust: Spread the marinara sauce over the whole pie. Spread the mozzarella and sliced tomatoes. Add the olive and onion rings.Step
- Prepare the Bunny Ears and Attach: Divide the remaining dough into 12 equal parts. Make "ears". Moisten the edges with water and "glue the ears" as in the photo. Bake pizza in a 392°F preheated oven until the bottom crust is golden brown, 12-15 minutes.
- Bake, Cool and Follow up with More Toppings: Slightly cool pizza and draw eyes and spouts with food coloring pen (or balsamic sauce). Decorate with dill.
Notes
To add more flavor to the pizza, you can also top it with a drizzle of olive oil.
You can also brush some beaten egg mixture on the exposed parts of the top crust of the pizza to lend it a nice shine.
While mozzarella cheese is the best choice for this recipe, you can also experiment and add some more kinds of cheese like ricotta cheese and basket cheese. In fact, you can also use a mix of two or more cheeses.
If you have any excess dough leftover that you want to store for later, transfer it to a large bowl and cover the top with plastic wrap. This can then be refrigerated for 2-3 days.
I love having lots of toppings on my Easter Pizza, and if you do too, you can also create a deep dish pizza for kids. Simply assemble the dough and the toppings in a springform pan instead of a baking dish.
If you want to add an egg wash to the pastry, crack and beat an egg. Spread the beaten eggs wash on the pastry for a golden crunch.
