Ingredients
Dough:
3/4 cup of warm water
1 tablespoon of sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons of active dry yeast
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 3/4 cup of flour
Fillings:
1/3 cup of pizza sauce
1/2 pound of sliced Italian cold cuts (or pepperoni)
1 – 1 1/2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup of shredded parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon of Italian seasonings
Topping:
1/4 cup of melted salted butter
1 teaspoon of garlic powder
1 teaspoon of dried parsley
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Mix these together briefly.
- Stir in salt and then gradually mix in the flour until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl and no longer sticks to your hands.
- Cover the dough in a lightly greased bowl and leave it to rise for about an hour.
- While the dough is rising, prepare your fillings – pizza sauce, Italian cold cuts, shredded mozzarella cheese, shredded parmesan cheese, and Italian seasonings.
- After the dough has doubled in size, preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Roll out the dough onto a lightly floured piece of parchment paper into a rectangle roughly the size of a baking sheet.
- Spread the pizza sauce across the dough, leaving the edges clear.
- Layer the cold cuts, cheeses, and Italian seasoning on top of the sauce. Be careful not to overfill.
- Roll the dough up just like a cinnamon roll, and then cut it into 12 even pieces, each approximately 2 inches.
- Place the roll-ups onto a parchment-lined or greased baking sheet, evenly spaced.
- Prepare the topping by combining melted salted butter, garlic powder, and dried parsley. Brush this onto the roll-ups.
- Bake the roll-ups for about 14 minutes, or until they’re golden brown.
- Allow them to cool slightly before serving. They can be enjoyed on their own or dipped into extra pizza sauce or ranch dressing.
