Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 1 store-bought or homemade pizza dough (enough to roll into a 12x9 inch rectangle)
  • Pizza sauce, enough to spread a thin layer over the dough
  • Shredded mozzarella cheese, generously enough to cover the dough
  • Pepperoni slices, enough to cover the dough surface
  • Olive oil, for brushing the tops
  • Italian seasoning, for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Dough: Roll out your pizza dough on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle about 12×9 inches with even thickness for consistent baking.
  2. Spread the Sauce: Evenly spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over the rolled-out dough, leaving about an inch of space on the edges.
  3. Add Cheese and Pepperoni: Scatter shredded mozzarella cheese generously across the sauce, then arrange pepperoni slices on top covering the entire surface.
  4. Roll It Up: Starting at the long side nearest you, carefully roll the dough into a tight log, sealing the edges by pinching to keep the filling inside.
  5. Slice and Arrange: Cut the log into approximately 1-inch thick scrolls and place them cut side up on a greased or parchment-lined baking tray, spaced evenly but close enough to support each other.
  6. Bake Until Golden: Brush the scroll tops lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with Italian seasoning. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and cheese is bubbly.

Notes

  • Use cold dough slightly chilled for easier handling and less stickiness.
  • Don’t overfill with sauce or cheese to prevent spilling and sogginess.
  • Use a sharp knife or floss to slice evenly for uniform baking.
  • Brushing with olive oil encourages browning and adds richness.
  • Serve warm fresh from the oven for best melty cheese texture.
