Description

These delicious Pizza Rollups are easy-to-make baked appetizers featuring a crispy golden exterior filled with melted mozzarella, pepperoni, and classic Italian seasonings. Perfect for parties or a fun snack, they are served warm with extra pizza sauce for dipping.

Ingredients

Pizza Rollups

  • 1 can refrigerated pizza dough
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup mini pepperoni slices
  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce, plus more for dipping
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Baking Sheet: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
  2. Roll Out Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the refrigerated pizza dough into a large rectangle, providing an even base for the toppings.
  3. Spread Sauce: Evenly spread 1/2 cup of pizza sauce over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges to prevent overflow during baking.
  4. Add Toppings: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce, followed by the mini pepperoni slices. Then sprinkle the Italian seasoning and garlic powder evenly over the toppings for added flavor.
  5. Roll Dough: Starting from the long side of the rectangle, tightly roll the dough into a log, encasing the toppings inside and creating a spiral effect.
  6. Slice Rollups: Cut the rolled dough into 1-inch thick slices, creating individual rollups. Arrange them cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Add Finishing Touches: Lightly brush the tops of the rollups with olive oil and sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top to promote browning and enhance taste.
  8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the rollups are golden brown and the cheese inside is melted and bubbly.
  9. Serve: Remove from the oven and let the rollups cool slightly. Serve warm with additional pizza sauce on the side for dipping.

Notes

  • Customize with cooked sausage, mushrooms, bell peppers, or olives for varied flavors.
  • Allow rollups to cool slightly before serving, as the filling will be hot immediately out of the oven.
