Ingredients
-
1 can (13.8 oz) refrigerated pizza dough
-
6 oz sliced pepperoni
-
1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
-
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
-
2 tbsp butter, melted
-
1 tsp garlic powder
-
1 tsp Italian seasoning
-
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
-
Marinara sauce (for dipping, optional)
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
-
Roll out pizza dough on a floured surface into a rectangle about ¼ inch thick.
-
Layer the fillings – evenly spread mozzarella cheese, followed by slices of pepperoni. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the top.
-
Roll the dough tightly from the long edge, forming a log. Pinch the seam to seal.
-
Cut into slices about 1-inch thick and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
-
Brush with egg wash to give them a golden finish. Then, mix melted butter with garlic powder and Italian seasoning and brush it over the rolls.
-
Bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.
-
Let cool slightly, then serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping.
Notes
-
Substitute crescent roll dough for a flakier texture.
-
Add diced jalapeños or crushed red pepper for a spicy kick.
-
Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat in the oven for best results.
