Pepperoni Pizza Rolls Recipe
Description
The recipe starts by spreading shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over unrolled crescent dough followed by evenly placing pepperoni slices on top. The dough is then rolled into a log to encase the fillings. The roll is sliced into uniform pieces and arranged on a parchment-lined baking sheet. A light sprinkle of Italian seasoning adds herbal notes before baking.
During baking at 375°F, the dough turns golden brown and puffs slightly, while cheese melts and mingles with cooked pepperoni, delivering traditional pizza flavors in handheld rolls. The rolls are served warm, paired with pizza sauce for dipping that enhances the pepperoni and cheese flavors. Leftovers can be cooled, stored in airtight containers, or frozen for future warming.
