Pizza Roses
Pizza Roses are flower-shaped spirals of dough, sauce, cheese, and pepperoni baked until golden, turning classic pizza flavors into an edible bouquet!
Servings: 12 roses
Ingredients
- 1 (14 oz) tube pizza dough
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
- 1 cup mozarella cheese shredded
- 1 (6 oz) bag pepperoni thinly sliced
- 1 tsp italian seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F and grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.
- Unroll the pizza dough (or crescent dough sheet) and loosely stretch it into an 11x18 inch rectangle.
- Spread a light layer of pizza sauce onto the dough, then sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top.
- Use a pizza cutter to cut the dough into 1 ½-inch strips width-wise.
- Working with one strip of dough at a time, layer 6-7 pepperoni slices on top, overlapping each slice and positioning the pepperoni so the top halves stick out of the dough.
- Take one end of the dough and begin rolling it up into a tight roll.
- Place the rolled dough into the muffin pan, sprinkle with italian seasoning, and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
- Allow to cool slightly. Remove from the pan and serve warm with extra pizza sauce, ranch, or a drizzle of hot honey.
