These pizza rolls are my kids' favorite lunch or dinner and the are so easy to make! You can use store bought freezer dough, but I prefer making a batch of my favorite white bread dough. A half batch of that dough will make 12 rolls.Garlic Parmesan Pizza Rolls
If garlic knots and pizza had a baby these would be it. Fill with sauce, cheese, and your favorite pizza meat (ours is pepperoni).
How to Make Pizza Rolls
After making the dough, divide it into 12 balls.
Press each ball until flat and round. Spoon 1 tsp. pizza sauce in the center and sprinkle with 1 tsp. cheese. Add two slices of pepperoni. Watch our video for step by step instructions.
- Do not press the dough too thin or the filling may come out during baking.
- Do not over fill the rolls. Just a little dab of sauce will do ya!
Bring the edges to the center and pinch to close. Place each pizza roll seam side down on a greased baking sheet.
What makes these pizza rolls amazing is the garlic parmesan butter that they are brushed with BEFORE and AFTER baking.

Notes
Dough: It's always better to add less flour than what you need and then add more as necessary. If the dough is too sticky add another ½ c. of flour.
Tips:
Do not make the rolls too thin when flattening the dough. This may cause the sauce to leak through during baking.
Do not over fill pizza rolls with sauce and cheese. A little bit goes a long way.

Hi everyone! Brandy here, and my 12 year old loves these pizza rolls. Sometimes she leaves the sauce out and uses it to dip the rolls in instead.
