  • Total Time: 35 mins

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (13.8 ounce) package Pillsbury® classic pizza crust
  • 1 cup marinara sauce, divided
  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • ½ cup thinly sliced pepperoni, cut in halves
  • 2 tablespoons minced onion (Optional)
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (Optional)

Instructions

  1. Place pizza dough on a lightly floured work surface, and press into a rectangle. Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the dough to within 1/2 inch of the crust edges (you will not need all of the sauce), and top with mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.

  2. Evenly distribute pepperoni and onion over the cheeses, and sprinkle with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes.

  3. Tightly roll up the dough to form a log, pinching the seam together to seal. Transfer dough to the refrigerator for 10 minutes to make slicing easier.

  4. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  5. Using a serrated knife, slice the log into 12 individual rolls and set onto the prepared baking sheet.

  6. Bake in the preheated oven until pizza rolls are golden brown in color and the cheese has melted, 10 to 12 minutes.

  7. Serve pizza rolls with the remaining warmed marinara as a dipping sauce.
