Ingredients

Scale

Base

  • Pizza Dough or Wonton Wrappers (enough for 5 rolls)

Filling

  • 1 cup shredded Mozzarella Cheese
  • 1/2 cup Tomato Sauce or Marinara
  • 1/2 cup sliced Pepperoni or 1/2 cup cooked sausage (or vegetables for vegetarian option)

For Cooking

  • Olive Oil or Cooking Spray (to crisp the rolls)

Seasonings

  • 1 tsp Italian Seasoning or a few fresh basil leaves, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Filling: Chop or shred the fillings including mozzarella, pepperoni or sausage, and any vegetables you plan to use. Mix them gently with tomato sauce and your preferred seasonings in a bowl.
  2. Roll Out the Dough or Prepare Wrappers: If using pizza dough, roll it thinly on a floured surface. If using wonton wrappers, lay them flat and ready for filling.
  3. Fill and Seal the Rolls: Place a spoonful of the filling on each dough piece or wrapper. Fold or roll them tightly, pressing the edges with water or egg wash to seal securely and prevent leakage during cooking.
  4. Cook Until Crispy: Either bake the rolls on a parchment-lined baking sheet brushed with olive oil at 400°F (200°C) for about 15 minutes or fry them in hot oil until golden and crunchy.
  5. Cool and Serve: Allow the pizza rolls to cool for a few minutes before serving to keep the filling intact and enjoy their perfect crispy-cheesy balance.

Notes

  • Use cold filling to prevent soggy dough.
  • Seal edges tightly with water or egg wash to avoid cheese leakage.
  • Do not overfill the rolls to maintain shape and avoid bursting.
  • Roll dough evenly for consistent crisping without burning.
  • Preheat your oven or oil to ensure a crispy exterior.
