Description
If pizza had a fun-size, dippable cousin, this would be it. These Pizza Crescent Rolls are flaky on the outside, gooey on the inside, and ready in about 20 minutes. Perfect for parties, game nights, or those “I need something cheesy now” moments—no stress, all smiles.
Ingredients
-
1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough (8 rolls)
-
24 slices pepperoni
-
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
-
½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
-
1 tablespoon melted butter (optional, for brushing)
-
Marinara sauce, warmed, for dipping
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Unroll the dough and separate into 8 triangles.
-
Fill each triangle: Place 3 pepperoni slices and about 1 tablespoon of mozzarella on the wide end.
-
Roll up from the wide end to the tip, tucking filling inside. Place seam-side down on the baking sheet.
-
Brush & season: Brush with melted butter (if using) and sprinkle with Italian seasoning.
-
Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly.
-
Cool briefly (2–3 minutes), then serve warm with marinara for dipping.
Notes
-
Seal the edges well to keep cheese from leaking out.
-
Don’t overfill—a little restraint = less mess, better rolls.
-
Try variations: Swap pepperoni for cooked sausage, ham, or veggies; add a pinch of red pepper flakes for heat.
-
Reheat like a pro: Use an air fryer or toaster oven at 350°F for 4–5 minutes to keep them crispy.
