Making Mealtime Meaningful: Discover how we're giving back with the 12T Cares program →

“Pizzette” are what Italians call little pizzas. Normal pizza is great, don’t get us wrong, but there’s something so fun and cute about these smaller versions that’s got us obsessed. These pizzette are particularly fun because they’re made of puff pastry and are delicious and super easy to make and customize! This recipe is great for a filling lunch or dinner (and if you want even more, just use two sheets of puff pastry) and you can get the whole family involved for a kid-friendly activity; they’ll love using the cookie cutter(better off using more than one so there’s no arguing) and will be thrilled that they helped make such a yummy meal!
