Now say “Pepperoni And Cheese Roll”.
This is another recipe I saw on Pinterest that I knew I must make. Go have a look at Bonnie’s photos over at What About Pie. Oozy cheese trapped in bread is the kind of thing I drool over.
Using purchased bread dough makes these Pepperoni Rolls as easy to make as they are good. They’re fabulous as a snack, for lunch or a satisfying breakfast (if you are me).
Ingredients:
Pre-packaged frozen dough, each loaf one pound
Olive oil
Deli-sliced pepperoni
Mozzzarella cheese, shredded
Parmesan cheese, shredded
Garlic powder
Italian seasoning
1 Tbs butter, melted
Directions:
1. Loosely cover the frozen bread dough with plastic wrap. Allow dough to thaw for a few hours at room temperature or overnight in the refrigerator.
2. Roll dough out to approximately 11 x 11 square. (I couldn’t quite get a square, but my rectangles worked just fine)
3. Brush dough with olive oil.
4. Cover dough with pepperoni slices.
5. Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
6. Lightly sprinkle with Italian seasoning and garlic powder.
7. Roll up dough starting at one edge of square (or the long side of the rectangle).
8. Place rolls on baking sheet, leaving space between them.
9. Brush melted butter on top of uncooked pepperoni roll. The rolls can be cooked right away without further rising.
10. Bake rolls at 375℉ for about 20 minutes or until the bread is golden and sounds hollow when tapped.
11. Allow pepperoni roll to cool completely before slicing.
Note: To feed 5 hungry teenaged boys (and there was nothing left) the quantities I used were 3 (one pound each) loaves of bread dough, 1/2 pound of pepperoni, 3 cups of Mozzarella, 3/4 cup Parmesan, and about 1 tsp each garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Next time I might use a bit more cheese, because more cheese is always good!
