Instructions
Creating the Christmas Tree Shape
Cut french bread loaf into 2 long halves.
Place one half in the center of your baking sheet.
Take the other french bread half and cut it into 3-4 inch long square sections. (should have 4-5 sections)
Cut the squares of bread diagonally, creating sets of equal size triangles.
Add the triangles to the pan, creating a tree shape.
Cut the scraps into small rectangles and squares to resemble presents and place those at the bottom of the tray.
Adding the Toppings
Spread an even layer of marinara or pesto sauce onto the french bread.
Add any desired meats. (bacon, pepperoni, sausage).
Next, sprinkle the top with a healthy layer of grated cheese.
Then, arrange your other toppings to create a Christmas tree design with lights, streamers, or ornaments. To do this I made diagonal lines with the sliced vegetables.
Bake the Christmas Tree Pizza
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
When the oven is preheated, place the baking sheet on the middle rack. Cook for 10 minutes or until the cheese has melted and is slightly golden.
Remove the pizza and allow 5 minutes for it to cool.
