Pizza Rolls (Two Ways)
Make two easy varieties of Pizza Rolls with sliced sausage and cheese or a Caprese twist. A crowd-pleaser for snacks or appetizers!
Ingredients
- 1 pre-made pizza dough
- 1 egg whisked
Sausage Pizza Rolls
- 1-2 tablespoon olive oil
- 3-4 tablespoon pizza sauce
- ¼ cup Cheddar cheese
- ¼ cup Gouda cheese
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
- 2 sausages sliced
Caprese Pizza Rolls
- 1-2 tablespoon olive oil
- pinch sea salt
- ½ teaspoon grounded black pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ dried oregano
- ½ cup Mozzarella cheese
- 12-15 fresh basil leaves
- 8-10 cherry tomatoes sliced
Instructions
- Divide the pizza dough into two portions.
- Place a parchment paper on your working surface to avoid sticking. Then roll out each portion of pizza dough into a rectangle of around 22 x 28 cm (9 x 11 inches).
- Brush both doughs with olive oil to prevent sogginess.
- For the sausage rolls: slather pizza sauce all across leaving 3 cm (1.2") from the side to seal the edge in the end. Top with crumbled or grated Gouda and Cheddar cheese. Sprinkle some italian herbs. Then put the sausage slices.
- For the caprese rolls: sprinkle with sea salt, crushed black pepper, oregano and garlic powder. Then add the Mozzarella cheese, basil leaves and cherry tomatoes.
- From the longer side start folding the dough tightly like a log. Wrap it all and pinch the edges.
- Freeze for 15 mins while you preheat the oven. The freezing will make the cutting easier later.
- Then cut into around 2.5 cm (1") sized pinwheels. Each log will give you around 12 – 16 pinwheels.
- Place the rolls on a baking tray lined with parchment paper with spaces between them. Brush with the whisked egg to get golden exterior.
- Bake at 200°C (390°F) for 15-20 mins till the cheese melts and they get golden.
- Serve hot!
Notes
- You can bake each set of pinwheels separately if you don’t have enough space in your oven. Keep one log of dough in the freezer while you are baking the other.
