Homemade Pizza Rolls
These Homemade Pizza Rolls feature pizza dough rolled with a savory mix of pepperoni, Italian sausage, scallions, Parmesan, marinara sauce, and mozzarella cheese, then baked in muffin tins. Each roll offers a compact, handheld pizza flavor with a tender, golden crust and a moist, cheesy filling seasoned with pizza seasoning.
Ingredients
- 6 ounces pepperoni chopped
- 1/2 cup Italian sausage cooked, drained, and crumbled
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese divided use, shredded
- 1/2 cup scallions chopped
- 2 tablespoons pizza seasoning divided use
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
- 1 1/4 cups marinara sauce
- 2 pound packages pizza dough
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F, and grease two 12-cup muffin tins.
- Place the pepperoni in the bowl of a food processor.
- Add the sausage, 1/4 cup Parmesan, scallions, and 1 1/2 tablespoons pizza seasoning. Pulse until mixed.
- Transfer the meat mixture to a large bowl and mix in the marinara sauce.
- Lightly flour a work surface.
- Remove each pound of dough from its packaging and roll each one into a ball.
- Roll out 1 ball of dough into a 10x12-inch rectangle.
- Spread half of the meat sauce across the dough, leaving ½ to 1 inch of crust around the edges.
- Sprinkle half of the mozzarella cheese on top.
- Roll it up jelly-roll style to produce a 12-inch log.
- Slice the log into 12 1-inch pieces. The easiest way is to slice the log in half to yield 2 6-inch pieces, and then slice in half again until you have 12 pieces.
- Place the pieces in the muffin tin cups.
- Repeat with the second ball of dough.
- Brush the tops of the pizza rolls with olive oil and sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan cheese and seasoning.
- Bake for 20 to 24 minutes or until golden brown.
- Remove from oven and place the pizza rolls on a platter or in a basket.
