Pepperoni Pizza Crescent Rolls


  • Author: Martha
  • Total Time: 20 min.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Rolls:

  • 1 can crescent roll dough (8 rolls)
  • 16 slices pepperoni
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup pizza sauce (for dipping)

Instructions

Prepare the Crescent Rolls

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray it lightly with cooking spray.
  2. Unroll the Dough: Open the can of crescent roll dough and unroll the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Separate the dough into 8 individual triangles.
  3. Add Toppings: Place 2 slices of pepperoni on the wide end of each triangle. Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the pepperoni.
  4. Roll Them Up: Carefully roll up each triangle, starting from the wide end and rolling toward the tip. Make sure the filling stays inside the dough as you roll it.
  5. Bake: Place the rolled-up crescent rolls on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they’re spaced evenly apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
  6. Cool Slightly: Remove from the oven and let the rolls cool for a few minutes before serving.

Serve the Rolls

  1. Serve with Pizza Sauce: Set out a small bowl of pizza sauce for dipping. The warm, tangy sauce pairs perfectly with the cheesy rolls.
  2. Optional Garnishes: If you’d like, sprinkle a little Italian seasoning or crushed red pepper on top of the rolls for extra flavor and spice.
