Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 20 pieces Pepperoni slices
- 0.5 cup Pizza sauce
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Dried Italian seasoning
- 2 tbsp Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly flour a clean work surface and roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle, approximately 12x8 inches in size.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the pizza sauce.
Place the pepperoni slices evenly over the cheese layer.
Starting from the longer edge, tightly roll up the dough into a log shape. Pinch the seam closed to seal it.
Using a sharp knife, slice the rolled dough into 1-inch thick pieces and arrange them flat on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Brush the mixture over the tops of the sliced pinwheels.
Optional: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese on top for extra flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and let the snacks cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm, optionally with extra pizza sauce on the side for dipping.
