Instructions
Creating Cheesy Pepperoni Pizza Roll Ups is a simple process. Just follow these easy steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray it with cooking spray.
2. Prepare Pizza Dough: Roll out the refrigerated pizza dough on a clean surface. Aim for a rectangle shape, about ¼ inch thick.
3. Add Cheese and Pepperoni: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Distribute the sliced pepperoni evenly on top of the cheese.
4. Season (Optional): If using, sprinkle Italian seasoning and garlic powder over the cheese and pepperoni for added flavor.
5. Roll the Dough: Starting from one of the longer sides, carefully roll the dough tightly into a log shape. Pinch the edges to seal the roll, and ensure the ends are also closed.
6. Slice the Roll: Using a sharp knife, slice the rolled dough into 1-inch thick pieces. You should get about 10-12 slices.
7. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the slices cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each roll.
8. Brush with Olive Oil: Lightly brush the tops of the roll-ups with olive oil to promote browning.
9. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-15 minutes or until the roll-ups are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
10. Cool Slightly: Remove the roll-ups from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
11. Serve with Sauce: Serve warm with pizza sauce for dipping.
