Pepperoni Pizza Roll Breadsticks (Printable Version)

Savory breadsticks stuffed with pepperoni and melted mozzarella, rolled up and baked golden for a fun pizza-inspired twist.

# What You Need:

01 - 1 lb refrigerated pizza dough

02 - All-purpose flour, for dusting

03 - 20 slices pepperoni

04 - 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

05 - 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

06 - 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

07 - 1/2 tsp garlic powder

08 - 1 tsp Italian seasoning

09 - 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

10 - 1 cup marinara sauce, warmed

01 - Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

02 - Lightly dust a work surface with flour. Roll the pizza dough into a 10x14-inch rectangle.

03 - Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Layer pepperoni slices on top of the cheese.

04 - Starting from the long edge, roll the dough up tightly into a log. Pinch the seam to seal.

05 - Using a sharp knife, cut the log into 8 equal pieces.

06 - Place each piece cut side up on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart.

07 - In a small bowl, mix melted butter, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Brush generously over the tops and sides of the rolls.

08 - Bake for 16 to 20 minutes until golden brown and cheese is bubbling.

09 - Remove from oven and sprinkle with parsley. Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping.

They taste like a portable pizza but feel way more impressive to serve
The buttery garlic topping makes them smell like they came from an actual pizzeria

02 -

If you skip the parchment paper the cheese that leaks out will cement each roll to the baking sheet forever
Letting the dough sit at room temperature for ten minutes before rolling makes it way easier to work with

03 -

A bench scraper cuts cleaner slices than a knife because it presses down without dragging the filling
Grating your own mozzarella makes a visible difference in how gooey and connected the cheese pull becomes
