Mini Smashed Potato Pizzas

Mini Smashed Potato Pizzas are not only a delicious snack but also a great way to get kids involved in the kitchen! After preparing the base, kids can enjoy the creative part—personalizing their own mini pizzas! They can spread pizza sauce, sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese, and add mini pepperoni slices however they like. You can even set up a toppings station with optional ingredients like Parmesan, red pepper flakes, and extra Italian seasoning, letting each child craft their own unique pizza masterpiece.
