Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 24 slices pepperoni
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- Marinara sauce for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into triangles. Pinch any tears back together.
- Place 2 slices of pepperoni and a small handful of shredded mozzarella cheese near the wider end of each triangle.
- Roll up the dough, starting at the wider end and rolling toward the smaller point. Tuck in any loose cheese or pepperoni.
- Place the roll-ups seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Brush this mixture generously over the tops of each roll-up.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the roll-ups are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
- Remove from the oven and let them cool for 2–3 minutes before serving. Serve with warm marinara sauce for dipping.
Notes
Don’t overfill the roll-ups to prevent them from being hard to seal. Seal the edges tightly to minimize cheese leakage. Serve with warm marinara sauce for the best experience.
