Mummy pizzas contain wheat bread, butter, garlic, marinara, pepperoni, string cheese, and sliced black olives, and are done less than 25 minutes, making this one quick Halloween recipe!
Ingredients in Halloween Mummy Pizzas
Wheat bread. Use wheat bread or white bread as the base for your pizza.
Butter. Melt the butter and spread it on top of the pizzas. Unsalted or salted butter work fine.
Garlic. Alternatively, you can use one tablespoon of minced garlic.
Marinara sauce. Use your favorite marinara or pizza sauce.
Pepperoni. You can use any meat toppings; we chose pepperoni. Layer the pepperoni over the marinara.
Mozzarella string cheese. Pick mozzarella string cheeses apart into pieces to make the mummy bandages.
Black olives. Sliced black olives make the eyes. These are our favorite sliced black olives.

Serve warm.
