Description

A festive twist on a classic pepperoni pizza featuring a creepy spiderweb design made from melted mozzarella and pepperoni slices.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 oz pizza dough
  • 1/2 cup marinara sauce
  • 2 cups shredded low-moisture mozzarella cheese
  • 20–24 slices of pepperoni
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C).
  2. Roll out pizza dough into a 12-inch circle on a floured surface and transfer to a greased baking sheet.
  3. Spread marinara sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a half-inch border for the crust.
  4. Place one pepperoni slice in the center, then surround it with a ring of mozzarella.
  5. Create an alternating pattern of pepperoni rings and mozzarella rings moving outward toward the crust.
  6. Use a spoon to drag lines of mozzarella from the center to the edges to create the spiderweb spokes.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden brown and cheese is bubbling.
  8. Remove from oven, let cool for 5 minutes, and slice.
