Homemade Pizza Rolls
Description
Homemade Pizza Rolls start with layering filling—pizza sauce, a blend of mozzarella and Parmesan cheese, diced pepperoni, mushrooms, garlic powder, and spices—inside wonton wrappers. Each wrapper holds about a tablespoon of filling, ensuring a neat, sealed pocket that keeps ingredients inside while baking.
Baking at 375°F crisps the wonton skins to a golden finish while gently melting the cheese and warming the fillings. The rolls develop a light crunch exterior paired with gooey, flavorful insides, reminiscent of classic pizza flavors in handheld form.
They work well as party snacks, finger foods, or a casual treat, and topping them with red pepper flakes adds an optional spicy kick. The filling mix can be adjusted with favorite pizza toppings, allowing for flexible flavor combinations.
Estimated calories are about 37 per roll, which can inform portion choices. Wonton wrappers provide a thin, crispy crust alternative to traditional dough, making these quick to prepare and bake.
Ingredients
- 24 wonton wrappers
- ¾ cup pizza sauce or spaghetti sauce
- ½-¾ cup cheese parmesan and/or mozzarella, freshly grated
- ¼ cup pepperoni turkey, regular, or veggie, diced
- 2-3 TBSP mushroom diced
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- red pepper flakes optional topping for a little spice
TOPPING INSPO
- Get creative! Take your favorite pizza toppings and go nuts. You can whip these up Hawaiian style, meat lover's, veggie lovers, or simply clean out your cripser with this super versatile snack!
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with a wire baking/cooling rack.
- If you're a mushroom lover like me, start by sauteing a handful chopped mushrooms with a minced clove of garlic in olive oil. If you can't stand the stuff, skip it or swap for some delish diced peppers, onions, or even some Italian sausage crumbles and follow the steps below!
- Lay wonton wrappers flat on a cutting board.
- You can add each ingredient to each wonton wrapper individually, assembly line style, or you can mix the filling all up in a bowl and scoop a little for each wonton wrapper.
- Aim for about a tablespoon of filling in each wonton triangle. Overstuffing will cause the goodies to leak out of the sides when baking in true pizza roll form, lol!
- Dip your finger in a little bit of water (keep a small cup handy) and run along the right and bottom side of the square and press closed until sealed. The water helps them stick.
- Repeat for each won-ton.
- When all your pizza triangles are sealed, set atop a wire baking/cooling rack and spritz each side with spray oil.
- Place the wire rack on a baking sheet and bake at 375° F for about 8-10 minutes, until golden and crisp.
- Optional extra: feel free to sprinkle pizza rolls with parmesan cheese before serving. You can also brush them with a little garlic butter first for an extra decadent pizza bite. Enjoy!
- Want your pizza rolls extra saucy? Feel like skipping the whole folding shenanigans? See the blog post below for steps on how to make deep dish wonton cups in mini muffin tins! They're easy and equally delicious!
Notes
- Use about one tablespoon of filling per wonton to prevent leaks during baking.
- Dip finger in water to moisten edges of wonton wrappers for effective sealing.
- Calories per pizza roll are estimated at approximately 37; adjust ingredient amounts to your preference.
