How to Make Mickey Mouse Pretzel Pizza Recipe

Add warm water, sugar, and yeast to a large bowl. Whisk to dissolve the yeast.

Set aside for 5-10 minutes or until foamy.

Add the flour, salt, and melted butter. Using your hands, mix until the dough forms.

Knead the pretzel dough with your hands for 8-10 minutes or until the dough is smooth. Grease a large bowl.

Add the pretzel dough to the greased bowl.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap.

Put the covered bowl in a warm place for about 45 minutes to 1 hour or until the dough has doubled in size.

Next Step

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.

Prepare the baking sheet with parchment paper.

Put the pretzel dough on a counter. Divide the dough into equal pieces.

Roll out each of the 8 pieces of dough into 24-inch ropes.

Form one large pretzel circle by twisting the pretzel rope into a large circle.

You may want to divide one of the 24-inch ropes into two pieces.

Form two separate smaller circles by twisting the pretzel rope into Mickey’s ears. Pinch the ears to the head pretzel.

Stick a toothpick in each ear to hold it in place. Transfer the formed Mickey pretzel to a prepared baking sheet.

Baking soda bath:

Add water and baking soda in a large pot over high heat bringing the mixture to a boil.

Carefully and gently place the pretzels into boiling water for 10 seconds on each side of the pretzel.

Prepping the pretzels:

Whisk the large egg yolk and water in a medium bowl. Transfer the boiled pretzels to the baking sheet.

Brush the top side of each pretzel with the egg wash mixture. Sprinkle the top of each pretzel with coarse sea salt.

Baking the pretzels:

Bake at 450 degrees for 10-12 minutes. The pretzels will be a dark golden brown.

Spoon one tablespoon of pizza sauce on the circles of Mickey's head. Sprinkle the shredded pizza cheese on each pizza.

Add 8-10 mini pepperonis to each of the pizzas.

Return them to the oven until the cheese has melted.

Remove from the oven just prior to serving.
