Ingredients
- 1 can (13.8 oz) refrigerated pizza dough
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce or marinara
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Optional: 1/4 cup mini pepperoni slices
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12x8-inch rectangle.
- Spread pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges.
- Sprinkle mozzarella, Parmesan, oregano, garlic powder, and pepperoni (if using) over the sauce.
- Starting from a long edge, tightly roll up the dough into a log. Pinch the seam to seal.
- Cut the log into 16 equal slices (about 1-inch thick). Place cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet, spacing about 1 inch apart.
- Brush the tops with olive oil. Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown and cheese is bubbly.
- Let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Serve with extra pizza sauce for dipping.
Tips
- For extra crispiness, bake on a preheated pizza stone or baking sheet.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in oven or air fryer.
- Customize with your favorite pizza toppings like cooked sausage, mushrooms, or bell peppers.
