    ingredients to make english muffin pizzas

    How to make pizza English muffins

    Preheat an oven or toaster oven to 400 degrees.

    You can cut the English Muffin in half or let your child do it with a butter knife. Most English Muffins are pre-split, so they are pretty easy to cut in half.

    Spoon sauce onto each half of the English Muffin, making sure to cover most of the inside.

    Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on each half of the English Muffin.

    If your child likes pepperoni, they can add some now. If not, skip this step. 3 slices of pepperoni work perfectly on each half.

    Pop these in a 400 degree oven for 10 minutes or until the cheesy is nice and bubbly.

    You can top these with some freshly grated Parmesan and some garlic powder and oregano. They are also delish as is. If your kids are more adventurous than mine, feel free to have them add their favorite veggies. It's hard to go wrong with a pizza on English muffin.

    Frequently asked questions

    How to make English muffins pizzas crispy?

    The key to not getting soggy English muffin pizza is to make sure you don't add too much sauce. My recipe uses ⅛ cup of sauce on each half of muffin which works to create a perfectly cooked and crispy pizza.

    Can I make pizza English muffins in the microwave?

    You can, but you will not get the crispness that you will in the oven. To make microwave English muffin pizzas, follow the recipe above and place in the microwave for 40-45 seconds.

    Can you make air fryer English muffin pizzas?

    Sure, you can cook this in an air fryer instead of a traditional oven. Simply set the air fryer to 400 degrees and bake the pizzas for 5-6 minutes until done.

    Do your kids love cooking?

    I have long been a proponent of cooking with kids. There are so many things kids learn helping out in the kitchen. Math, reading, chemistry, cooperation and more are used while following a recipe.
