Ingredients

6 Baker Street Burger Buns
Tomato passata
Grated cheese
Pepperoni slices
Black olives, sliced
Green pepper, sliced into small triangles
Pickle, sliced in half lengthways

Steps

Pre-heat your oven to 200°C, 180°C Fan, or Gas Mark 6
While you wait for the oven to heat up, it’s time for the kids to make their pizza faces. Hand over a pre-sliced Baker Street Burger Bun to each child, then ask them to carefully spread a small spoonful or two of tomato pasta onto each slice, then sprinkle some grated cheese on top.
Next, it’s time to decorate – use our photo as a guide if you like. Ask them to add a slice of pepperoni on top for the face, then use a couple of sliced black olives for the eye, the triangle-shaped green pepper as a nose and the sliced pickle as the mouth.
Place each pizza face on a baking tray and cook in the oven for around 10 minutes, until the cheese has melted. Remove from the oven, serve and enjoy!
