Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces crescent roll dough
- 0.5 cup pizza sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 20 pieces pepperoni slices
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (for rolling)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the crescent roll dough into a large rectangle, pressing the seams together to seal.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly across the dough, leaving a half-inch border around the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, ensuring an even layer.
Place the pepperoni slices evenly on top of the mozzarella cheese.
Sprinkle the Italian seasoning and garlic powder over the pepperoni and cheese layers.
Starting from one of the longer edges, roll up the dough tightly into a log shape. Pinch the seam to seal the roll.
Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into approximately 16 equal pieces.
Place the pinwheels cut-side down onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about an inch apart.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese on top of each pinwheel.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the pinwheels are golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Serve warm and enjoy!
