Ingredients
Units
Scale
For the Dough:
- 1 batch 2-ingredient pizza dough
For the Filling:
- 1 cup tomato sauce
- 1 cup pizza toppings (like mushrooms, olives, and peppers)
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 180ยฐC (350ยฐF) and line a large tray with parchment paper. This ensures the pizza rolls wonโt stick and allows for easy clean-up. - Prepare and Roll the Dough
Prepare your pizza dough. Once done, roll the dough into a rectangular shape, approximately 12 inches by 6 inches (30 cm by 15 cm). This will make the dough even and provide the right base for your toppings. - Add the Sauce and Toppings
Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving about half an inch of dough around the edges. Layer your toppings of choice, followed by the cheese and Italian seasoning. - Roll and Slice
Starting with the longest side of the dough, gently roll it up tightly until fully rolled. Use a sharp knife to slice the dough into 12-16 even pieces. This will create bite-sized pizza rolls that bake evenly. - Arrange on a Baking Tray
Place the cut rolls neatly onto the prepared baking tray. If desired, brush the tops and sides with milk for a golden finish during baking. - Bake
Bake the pizza rolls for 15-17 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with additional Italian herbs for extra flavor. - Serve
Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy these delicious treats warm or at room temperature!
