Fun Variations to Mix Things Up ✨
Want to put your own spin on this? Here are some easy swaps and ideas to make it your own:
- Veggie version — Skip the pepperoni and use sliced bell peppers or cherry tomatoes instead.
- White pizza — Use a garlic butter base instead of tomato sauce. So good!
- Mini bunnies — Use smaller personal pizza crusts to make individual bunny pizzas for each child.
- Extra toppings — Add mushrooms, sausage, or bacon under the cheese before baking.
- Dessert pizza version — Use a sweet dough crust, spread Nutella, and use strawberry slices and blueberries for the face. So adorable!
- Homemade dough — If you’re feeling ambitious, swap the premade crusts for homemade pizza dough.
No matter how you make it, the bunny shape is what makes it magical. 🐰
Can You Make It Ahead or Store Leftovers? 📦
Great news — yes! Here’s what you need to know:
Making It Ahead
You can prep everything ahead of time. Assemble the pizza on the baking sheet and cover it tightly with plastic wrap. Then store it in the fridge for up to 4 hours before baking. That way, you just pop it in the oven when you’re ready.
Storing Leftovers
Store any leftover slices in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer at 350°F for about 5 minutes for the best results and crispy crust. (Microwaving works too, but the crust won’t be as crispy.)
Freezing isn’t recommended for this one since the assembled pizza doesn’t freeze as well. But honestly, will there even be leftovers? 😉
Common Questions About This Recipe ❓
What kind of premade pizza crust works best?
Any round refrigerated pizza crust works great. Brands like Pillsbury or store-brand crusts are perfect. You can also use naan bread or flatbread for smaller individual versions.
Can kids help make this?
Absolutely! Kids can help spread the sauce, sprinkle the cheese, and arrange the olive face. The cutting of the crust is the only part that needs an adult. This is a wonderful Easter cooking activity for little ones.
Can I use a different cheese?
Of course! Provolone, cheddar, or a blend of Italian cheeses all work well. Use whatever your family loves.
How do I keep the ears from sliding off?
Place the ear pieces on the baking sheet right next to the main crust so they touch. The cheese and sauce will help hold everything together once it bakes. Also, once it’s baked, the crust firms up nicely.
What can I use instead of olives?
If your family isn’t big on olives, try using black beans, small mushroom slices, or even blueberries (for a sweeter version). Just get creative with what you have!
