  • 1 cup Homemade Pizza Sauce or store-bought
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 6 ounces pepperoni slices

Method
 

Instructions:
  1. Step 1: Prepare Your Dough - If you're using homemade dough, prepare your Quick and Easy Pizza Dough according to the recipe instructions. If you're opting for store-bought dough, take it out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to make it easier to work with.
  2. Step 2: Preheat the Oven - Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures that your pizza rolls will bake evenly and turn golden brown.
  3. Step 3: Roll Out the Dough - On a lightly floured surface, roll out your pizza dough into a rectangle about ¼ inch thick. Aim for a size that’s approximately 12x16 inches, giving you plenty of space for filling.
  4. Step 4: Add Sauce and Cheese - Spread your pizza sauce evenly over the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.
  5. Step 5: Layer on the Pepperoni - Arrange the pepperoni slices over the cheese, ensuring they are evenly distributed. Feel free to add more or less according to your personal taste!
  6. Step 6: Roll It Up - Starting from one long side, carefully roll the dough tightly into a log. Pinch the edges to seal, making sure all that delicious filling stays inside.
  7. Step 7: Slice the Rolls - Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, slice the rolled dough into 1-2 inch pieces. This will create your individual pizza rolls.
  8. Step 8: Arrange and Brush - Place the sliced rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with melted butter and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and garlic salt for extra flavor.
  9. Step 9: Bake - Bake in your preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly. Keep an eye on them to avoid over-baking!
  10. Step 10: Cool and Serve - Once done, remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve warm with extra pizza sauce on the side for dipping. Enjoy the deliciousness of your Quick and Easy Pepperoni Pizza Rolls!
