Description

Pepperoni Pizza Scrolls are a quick, flavorful snack featuring soft pizza dough rolled with tomato sauce, melted mozzarella, and spicy pepperoni. Perfectly baked to a golden crisp, these chewy bites offer a delicious blend of classic pizza flavors in an easy-to-eat scroll form, ideal for parties, lunchboxes, or any snack time craving.


Ingredients

Scale

Base

  • 1 batch pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)

Fillings

  • Tomato sauce, enough to spread a thin layer
  • 1 to 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2025 thin slices pepperoni
  • Italian herbs and spices (oregano, basil) to taste

Finishing

  • Olive oil for brushing

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough: Roll out your pizza dough on a lightly floured surface into a rectangular shape about ¼ inch thick, creating a smooth base ready for layering.
  2. Add the Tomato Sauce: Spread a thin, even layer of tomato sauce over the dough, leaving the edges clear to help seal the scrolls later.
  3. Layer on the Cheese and Pepperoni: Sprinkle generous amounts of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then evenly arrange overlapping pepperoni slices on top, and sprinkle Italian herbs and spices to enhance the flavor.
  4. Roll It Up and Slice: Starting from one long edge, gently roll the dough into a tight log, ensuring the filling stays inside. Slice the log into even 1.5-inch scrolls using a sharp knife.
  5. Bake to Golden Perfection: Place the scrolls on a parchment-lined baking tray, brush the tops with olive oil, and bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.

Notes

  • Don’t overfill to prevent sogginess and ensure easy rolling.
  • If dough feels too sticky, chill for 10 minutes before slicing.
  • Use fresh mozzarella for better melting and creamier texture.
  • Brush with olive oil for a golden, crispy crust.
  • Serve warm for the best melty, gooey experience.
