Description
Simple recipe for making pizza rolls with a flaky crust filled with pepperoni and cheese.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package (14.1 ounces) refrigerated pie crusts
- 1 cup pizza sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup sliced pepperoni
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon water
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Unroll both pie crusts onto a clean surface.
- Spread pizza sauce evenly over each crust, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the sauce on both crusts.
- Distribute the pepperoni slices over the cheese layer.
- Cut each crust into 9 equal squares. You will have 18 squares total.
- Place one square on top of another square, aligning the edges. Gently press the edges together to seal. Repeat with the remaining squares to form 9 sealed rolls.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash.
- Brush the tops of the pizza rolls with the egg wash.
- Place the rolls on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and flaky.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- You can substitute your favorite pizza toppings for pepperoni.
- For extra crispiness, you can lightly spray the tops of the rolls with cooking spray before applying the egg wash.
