These mini snowman pizzas are totally my favorite to make when the weather gets chilly. What makes them so awesome is that they’re super fun to prepare, turning a simple lunch into a whole creative project. They’re perfect for kids because they can decorate them themselves, making them one of those snowman food ideas that’s as much a fun activity as it is a meal. The result is a small, cheesy, delicious pizza that’s almost too cute to eat… almost!
What You’ll Need
- 1 can of refrigerated pizza dough (or split English muffins work great too!)
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 small carrot, peeled
- 4-5 black olives, pitted

Step 1: Okay, first things first. Get your oven preheating to 400°F (200°C) and pop some parchment paper on a baking sheet so clean-up is a breeze.
Step 2: Roll out that pizza dough. Grab two different-sized round cookie cutters (a glass and a bottle cap totally work in a pinch!) to cut out a bigger circle for the body and a smaller one for the head.
Step 3: Lay your dough circles on the baking sheet. You’ll want to have the smaller “head” just slightly overlapping the “body” to connect them.
Step 4: Time for the good stuff! Spoon a little pizza sauce over each snowman shape and then go wild with the mozzarella cheese.
Step 5: Let’s give them some personality! Finely chop the olives for the eyes and buttons. Slice a tiny, sharp triangle from the carrot to make the perfect nose. Gently press them onto the cheese.
Step 6: Bake everything for about 10-12 minutes. You’ll know they’re done when the cheese is all melty and bubbly and the crust is golden and toasty. Give them a minute to cool before you dig in!
