Ingredients:
- 1 can refrigerated pizza dough (or homemade dough)
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese (for topping)
Instructions:
1. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
2. Prepare the Dough:
- Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface. Stretch it into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
3. Make the Garlic Butter:
- In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
4. Brush the Dough:
- Brush the garlic butter mixture generously over the entire surface of the pizza dough.
5. Add the Cheese:
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the dough, making sure to cover the surface well.
6. Roll It Up:
- Carefully roll the pizza dough into a tight log or cylinder, starting from one long edge. Be sure to roll it evenly to prevent the cheese from spilling out during baking.
7. Slice the Rolls:
- Slice the rolled dough into about 1 to 1 ½ inch slices.
8. Bake the Pizza Rolls:
- Place the sliced rolls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
- Sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese over the top of the rolls.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
9. Serve:
- Allow the pizza rolls to cool for a couple of minutes before serving.
- Optionally, serve with marinara sauce or ranch dressing for dipping.
Tips for Success:
- Dough Alternatives: If you don’t have refrigerated pizza dough, you can also use crescent roll dough or homemade pizza dough for the same results.
- Flavor Variations: Add pepperoni, sausage, or vegetables inside the rolls for a more filling treat!
- Make Ahead: You can assemble the pizza rolls ahead of time and store them in the fridge for up to 24 hours before baking.
