Ingredients
  

Dough and Filling
  • 1 lb Pizza dough Store-bought or homemade
  • 1 cup Mozzarella cheese Shredded

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface into a large rectangle.
  3. Spread marinara sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border.
  4. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese and seasonings over the sauce.
  5. Carefully roll up the dough tightly from one long side.
  6. Cut rolled dough into 12 equal pieces and place cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Brush the tops with olive oil and bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown and cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serving
  1. Let cool for 2-3 minutes before serving. Serve warm with extra marinara sauce for dipping.

Notes

Don’t skip the Italian seasoning—it’s the secret to that pizzeria flavor! For a crispy texture, use a pizza stone instead of a baking sheet. You can customize the filling by adding pepper jack cheese for a spicy twist or including pepperoni and veggies.
