Cutout Pizzas

Kids will love personalizing their pizzas by choosing shapes.

Makes eight 4-inch pizzas

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 pound frozen bread dough, thawed
  • 2 cups pizza sauce or pasta sauce
  • 2 cups grated blanched carrots
  • 4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  1. Place dough in a warm place, covered, until doubled in bulk. Punch down and place on a lightly floured surface. Roll out as thinly as possible.

  2. Hand children large cookie cutters — geometric shapes work best — and let them cut out a shaped crust.

  3. Place crusts on cookie sheets lined with nonstick foil. Allow children to add sauce from plastic squirt bottles, then top pizzas with carrots and cheese.

  4. Bake at 400° for 12 to 15 minutes or until pizzas are browned and bubbly. Remove from the oven and let stand 10 minutes before serving.
