Pepperoni Pizza Roll-Ups
Prep time: 10 mins | Cook time: 15 mins | Serves: 4-6
Ingredients
Tortillas: 8-10 medium flour tortillas (soft taco size).
Cheese: 2 cups shredded mozzarella (or a pizza blend).
Pepperoni: 1 package of sliced pepperoni.
Sauce: ½ cup marinara or pizza sauce (plus extra for dipping).
Topping: 2 tbsp melted butter, ½ tsp garlic powder, and 1 tsp dried parsley or Italian seasoning.
Instructions
Preheat & Prep:
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Assemble the Rolls:
Lay a tortilla flat.
Spread about 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce in a thin line down the center.
Sprinkle a generous amount of mozzarella over the sauce.
Place a row of pepperoni slices (about 4–6) on top of the cheese.
Roll it Up:
Tightly roll the tortilla up like a cigar. Place it seam-side down on the baking sheet so it doesn’t unroll while cooking.
The “Glow-Up” Coating:
Mix the melted butter, garlic powder, and herbs in a small bowl. Brush the tops of the rolls generously with the mixture. For that extra look from the photo, sprinkle a little more cheese and a few pepperoni slices on top of the rolls.
Bake:
Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese inside is bubbly and melting out the ends.
Serve:
Let them cool for 2–3 minutes (the cheese will be very hot!). Serve with a side of warm marinara or ranch dressing for dipping.
Pro Tips for the Best Result
Extra Crispy: If you want them extra crunchy, you can lightly pan-fry them in a little olive oil before putting them in the oven, or use an air fryer at 190°C for about 8 minutes.
Filling Variety: Feel free to add finely chopped bell peppers, onions, or cooked sausage inside for more flavor.
