Ooey-Gooey Bacon Ranch Pizza Rolls Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 can pizza dough (or homemade pizza dough)
- 1 cup cooked crispy bacon (crumbled)
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- Optional: Extra ranch dressing or marinara sauce for dipping
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease it lightly.
- Prepare the Filling:
- In a medium bowl, mix the crumbled bacon, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, ranch dressing, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning until well combined.
- Assemble the Rolls:
- Roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle (about 12×9 inches). Spread the bacon and cheese mixture evenly over the dough.
- Starting from one of the longer sides, tightly roll the dough into a log. Pinch the seam to seal.
- Slice and Bake:
- Cut the log into 1-inch slices and place them on the prepared baking sheet, cut-side up.
- Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter for a golden, buttery finish.
- Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve:
- Let the rolls cool slightly before serving. Serve with extra ranch dressing or marinara sauce for dipping.
Tips:
- Add Veggies: Mix in diced green onions, spinach, or bell peppers for extra flavor and nutrition.
- Make Ahead: Assemble the rolls ahead of time and refrigerate until ready to bake. Add a few extra minutes to the baking time if starting from cold.
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
- Spice It Up: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a drizzle of hot sauce for a spicy kick.
