Ingredients
Dough:
- 1 ½ cups warm water
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 teaspoons instant yeast
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- 3 ½ to 4 to 4 cups flour (see note)
Filling:
- 2 ½ to 3 to 3 cups pizza sauce (see note)
- 2 cups freshly shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup pepperoni chopped
- ¼ to ⅓ to ⅓ cup cornmeal
- ¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet (about 12X18-inches) with parchment paper.
- For the dough, in an electric stand mixer fitted with the dough hook (you can also do this by hand in a large bowl with a spoon), stir together the water, honey, olive oil, yeast, salt and 1 cup of the flour. With the mixer on low speed, continue adding the flour until the dough clears the sides of the bowl and forms a soft, smooth ball. Knead for 3-4 minutes (add a few minutes if using whole wheat flour). Let the dough rest, covered, in the bowl for 10-15 minutes.
- Separate the dough into two pieces. On a lightly greased countertop, press one portion of dough into a thin rectangle, about 14X10-inches.
- Spread 1/2 to 3/4 cup pizza sauce evenly across the top. Sprinkle evenly with half the mozzarella cheese and then half the pepperoni. Starting with on long side, roll up cinnamon-roll style, pinching the seam together to seal.
- Place the cornmeal in a bowl or shallow dish. Cut the dough into 1-inch sections. One by one, press the bottom of each pizza roll into the cornmeal and then place on the prepared baking sheet about an inch apart.
- Repeat with the remaining half of dough.
- Once all the pizza rolls are placed on the baking sheet, sprinkle evenly with Parmesan cheese and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden.
- Warm the extra pizza sauce, and serve the pizza rolls immediately out of the oven with the pizza sauce for dipping.
Notes
- Pizza Sauce: here is my favorite homemade recipe.
- Flour: I've made these pizza rolls (and our favorite pizza dough) with all types of flour. Bread flour, all-purpose unbleached flour, and white whole wheat flour. My favorite combo is probably half bread flour, half white whole wheat flour; the dough is extremely versatile!
