Ingredients
Scale
For the Pizza Rolls:
- 1 lb pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup marinara sauce (plus extra for dipping)
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- 1/2 tsp dried basil
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
For the Garlic Parmesan Butter:
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it. - Prepare the Pizza Dough:
Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface into a rectangle shape, about 12×8 inches in size. - Add the Filling:
Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce over the dough, leaving about a 1-inch border on all sides. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce. Add the dried oregano, basil, and red pepper flakes, if using. - Roll the Dough:
Carefully roll the dough into a tight log, starting from one edge. Once rolled, slice it into about 1-inch wide rolls and place them on the prepared baking sheet. - Bake the Pizza Rolls:
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the pizza rolls are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. - Prepare the Garlic Parmesan Butter:
While the rolls are baking, melt the butter in a small bowl. Add the minced garlic, parsley, Parmesan cheese, and salt. Stir to combine. - Coat the Pizza Rolls:
Once the pizza rolls are done baking, remove them from the oven and brush them generously with the garlic Parmesan butter mixture. You can also sprinkle extra Parmesan on top for an added cheesy touch. - Serve:
Serve the pizza rolls warm with extra marinara sauce for dipping. Enjoy!
Notes
- For a spicy kick, you can add extra red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the garlic butter.
- Feel free to add other pizza toppings like pepperoni, sausage, or mushrooms to the filling.
- If you’re short on time, store-bought pizza dough works great for this recipe.
- These rolls can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheated in the oven.
