Instructions
Prepare the DoughStart by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Take the proofed pizza dough ball and gently punch it down just a bit to release any excess air. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a rectangle shape, about 1/4 inch thick. Now cut it into rectangle strips big enough to fill and roll.
Add the ToppingsNow it's time to layer on the flavors! Arrange the sliced pepperoni evenly over the rolled-out dough strips, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle the shredded cheese generously over the pepperoni. Feel free to get creative here by adding any additional fillings you desire, such as diced bell peppers or olives.
Shape the RollsStarting from one end of the dough rectangle, carefully roll it up tightly into a log shape. Make sure to seal the edges by pinching them together firmly. Once rolled, gently press down on the log to flatten it slightly.
Bake for 15 - 20 MinutesPlace the rolls onto a greased baking sheet or lined with parchment paper, leaving some space in between them. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the rolls turn golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve and Enjoy!Once out of the oven, allow the pizza rolls to cool slightly before serving. Serve them warm with a side of ranch and marinara sauce for dipping. The combination of the crispy exterior, gooey cheese, and tangy sauces will surely satisfy your taste buds!
