Ingredients

Scale

1 lb pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
4 oz pepperoni slices
1 tsp Italian seasoning
½ cup marinara sauce (for dipping)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface until about ¼ inch thick.
Evenly spread the mozzarella cheese over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Layer pepperoni slices on top of the cheese and sprinkle with Italian seasoning.
Starting from one edge, tightly roll the dough into a log shape and pinch the edges to seal.
Cut the roll into 1-inch pieces and place them cut-side up on the baking sheet.
Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and bubbling. Serve with warm marinara sauce for dipping.
