Ingredients
Directions
- Start by spreading some shmear or cream cheese on your bagel. (We made a plain flavored vampire and a strawberry flavored one as well!)
- Next, get some plastic vampire teeth and insert them into the center hole of the bagel.
- Add some eyes! You could use small candy eyes, raisins, olives, capers, nuts, or anything small and round.
- Next, add some eyebrows and a hairline. What you see here is an olive that’s been sliced and chopped. You could also use sliced or slivered nuts, crumbled crackers, or chopped raisins.
- Finally, add a little drop of blood coming off of one of the fangs. You could use a slice of strawberry or red bell pepper.
- Grab an Einstein Bros. bagel — great bagel flavors for the ghost could be onion, garlic, asiago, plain, or even pretzel!
- Spread a spoonful of pizza sauce on the open face of the bagel.
- From a slice of your favorite white cheese, cut a ghost shape using a knife.
- Place the ghost on your bagel. Cut two small circles from an olive and give your ghost some eyes.
- Heat your bagel in a toaster oven to melt the cheese — it’s a ghostly pizza bagel!
- Place a dollop of your favorite Einstein Bros. shmear flavor in a ziploc plastic baggie. Trim off the tip of one of the corners of the bag. This will act as a piping bag so that you can pipe the shmear across your bagel.
- Squeeze the shmear out of the piping bag across the bagel at different angles, creating the look of mummy wrapping.
- Once you have the coverage that you like, add two eyes. (See above in the vampire bagel ideas for lots of edible things you can use to create eyes!)
- Cut a slice of your favorite white cheese into strips. These will be your mummy’s 'wrapping.'
- Spread a spoonful of pizza sauce onto the open face of your bagel.
- Place the cheese strips across the bagel, crisscrossing them to create a mummy look.
- Add two olive slices for eyes.
- Heat your bagel in a toaster oven to gently melt the cheese and create a mummy pizza bagel!
