  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x
  • Method: Stovetop
  • Cuisine: American

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 1/2 cup diced turkey turkey pepperoni
  • 1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup pizza sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Unroll the crescent roll dough onto a lightly floured surface, pressing the seams together to form one large rectangle.
  2. Step 2: Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese, diced turkey beef pepperoni, and Italian seasoning over the sauce.
  3. Step 3: Carefully roll the dough up tightly from one long side to the other, creating a log. Gently pinch the seam closed to secure it.
  4. Step 4: Using a sharp knife, slice the log into 1-inch thick pinwheels. Place the pinwheels cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each roll.
  5. Step 5: In a small bowl, whisk the egg with 1 tablespoon of water to create an egg wash. Brush the tops of the pizza rolls with the egg wash and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.
  6. Step 6: Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Keep leftover pizza rolls in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze them for longer enjoyment.
  • For best results, reheat leftover rolls in a toaster oven or air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes until warmed through and crispy.
  • Serve these warm with a side of extra pizza sauce for dipping, or a small bowl of ranch dressing, which kids especially love!
  • To ensure your rolls hold their shape perfectly and are easy to slice, place the tightly rolled log in the freezer for 10-15 minutes before cutting into pinwheels.
