Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Shape the Dough: Roll out the pizza dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Shape it into a large triangle to resemble a Christmas tree. Use any leftover dough to form a trunk.
Add the Sauce: Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
Cheese Layer: Sprinkle the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese evenly over the sauce.
Decorate the Tree: Use the green and red bell peppers to create “garland” and “ornaments” on the tree. Arrange the pepperoni slices or cut shapes as desired. Add black olives for extra decoration.
Season and Drizzle: Sprinkle Italian seasoning over the pizza and drizzle lightly with olive oil.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
Serve: Let the pizza cool slightly, then slice and serve. Enjoy your festive Christmas Tree Pizza!
