Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Pizza dough
- 120 ml Marinara sauce
- 200 grams Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 100 grams Pepperoni slices
- 30 grams Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 30 grams All-purpose flour (for dusting)
- 1 unit Egg (beaten, for egg wash)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Dust your work surface lightly with all-purpose flour. Roll out the pizza dough into a rectangular shape, approximately 30x40 cm (12x16 inches).
Spread an even layer of marinara sauce over the dough, leaving about a 1 cm (1/2 inch) border around the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, followed by the pepperoni slices. Optionally, add any additional toppings of your choice (e.g., diced vegetables or cooked sausage).
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese, dried oregano, and garlic powder evenly over the toppings.
Starting with one of the longer edges, tightly roll the dough into a log shape.
Using a sharp knife, slice the log into 12 equal pieces.
Place the slices cut side down onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly.
Lightly brush the tops of the swirls with the beaten egg to give them a golden, glossy finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the swirls are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Allow them to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your delicious Pizza Swirls!
