Notes
Tips
These mini pizzas are very versatile when it comes to the ingredients so feel free to use what you like. Just bear in mind they will be quite small so you will be able to top each tree with only a few pieces.
Use any pizza sauce you like. Pesto is also a great option. For homemade pizza sauce combine 1 tbsp dried oregano, 4 tbsp ketchup, 1 tsp olive oil (optional) and 2 garlic cloves (minced).
The puff pastry will rise in the oven but it will deflate a bit after it has been taken out of the oven.
The tree cutter I used here is 3 inch long & 2.4 inch wide (in the widest part).
