Recipe Instructions:
-
Preheat the broiler: Set your oven to broil and allow it to preheat while you prepare the pizza toppings.
-
Prepare the English Muffins: Split the English muffins in half and place them on an ungreased baking sheet, ensuring they are not touching each other.
-
Add the Sauce and Cheese: Spoon a thin layer of pizza sauce onto each English muffin half. Then, generously cover the sauce with shredded mozzarella cheese.
-
Prepare the “Mold”: In a small bowl, mix the parmesan cheese with the yellow, red, and green food coloring drops until you achieve a vibrant green shade resembling mold. You can use a plastic bag to mix to prevent your fingers from staining. Set the colored parmesan aside.
-
Broil the Pizzas: With adult supervision, place the baking sheet under the broiler and broil the pizzas until the cheese has melted and started to turn golden brown. This should take about 3-5 minutes, so keep a close eye on them to prevent burning.
-
Add the “Mold” Topping: Once the pizzas are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for about a minute. Then, carefully sprinkle the colored parmesan cheese on top of each pizza to create the “mold” effect.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Allow the pizzas to cool slightly before serving. For added fun, slip on a lab coat before serving to complete the Penicillin Pizza theme. Enjoy this whimsical treat with friends and family!
