Description
Delicious pepperoni pizza roll ups that are easy to make and perfect for dipping!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup water (warm (95–110 degrees F))
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (or any cooking oil)
- 2/3 cup pizza sauce (or marinara sauce)
- 1½ cups mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- ½ cup Parmesan cheese (grated or shredded)
- 8 ounces pepperoni
Instructions
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl or stand mixer, combine the warm water, sugar, and yeast and mix well. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes, or until it becomes frothy and bubbly.
- Once your yeast has “proofed,” add the olive oil, salt and about 1½ cups of flour. Using a paddle or dough hook, mix until all the ingredients are completely combined.
- Add in the rest of the flour, about a 1/4 cup at a time until the dough pulls away from the edges of the bowl.
- Mix on low speed for another 1-2 minutes until the dough is nice and smooth, then transfer to a lightly floured surface and shape the dough into a ball.
- If you are making the dough ahead, wrap it tightly and store in the fridge overnight. Otherwise, cover the bowl with a kitchen towel and let it rest in a warm place for about 30 minutes, or until doubled in size.
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a baking dish or baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray.
- With lightly floured hands, stretch and shape your dough into a large rectangle that is about 1/2″ thick.
- Add your favorite sauce, toppings, and cheeses. Roll into a long roll and then cut into 1″ thick slices. Place onto your prepared baking dish or sheets about 1″ apart. (Note: to create heart shaped Pizza Roll Ups, you’ll need to unroll each slightly and form into a heart) Let the Pizza Roll Ups rise for about 15 minutes.
- Bake in a preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the cheese has melted.
- Remove from the oven and serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping. Enjoy!
Notes
- For best results, let the dough rest in a warm area to help it rise.
- Try adding different toppings such as vegetables or other types of cheese.
