Notes
- Pinch the seams of the crescent roll dough together well. The cheese and pepperoni might leak out during baking if there are any gaps or holes.
- Try cheese or even add some extra toppings like sliced black olives or chopped bell peppers. Just be careful not to overload the bread, or it might be hard to roll up.
- If the bread browns too quickly on top, you can cover it loosely with foil for the last few minutes of baking.
- Let the bread cool for a few minutes before slicing it.
- If you're making this bread for a party or gathering, you can easily double or triple the recipe to feed a crowd. Use a larger baking sheet or air fryer basket to accommodate the extra bread.
