Ingredients You'll Need
Pizza dough forms the roll, while pizza sauce goes over the dough before the toppings and cheese are added. Use your favorite pizza toppings to make the filling your own.
Mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese are both included in the rolls. Butter, garlic powder, and parsley are combined after the rolls bake and brushed over each one.
How To Make It
Start by gathering the pizza dough, sauce, toppings, mozzarella, and Parmesan so the filling is ready to add. The recipe then moves from a rolled dough into six cut pieces before the baking and garlic butter finish.
Preparation
Roll out the pizza dough and add the pizza sauce, your favorite toppings, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese. Roll up the dough once the filling has been added.
Cut the rolled dough into 6 even pieces. Add each piece to a greased muffin tin.
Cooking
Place the muffin tin in a 425°F oven and bake the pizza rolls for 15-20 minutes. While they bake, melt the butter and add the garlic powder and parsley.
Remove the muffins from the oven when the baking time is complete. Brush the garlic butter over the top of each muffin, then serve and enjoy.
Serving & Variations
Serve these pizza rolls as they are, with the garlic butter brushed over every muffin. The recipe uses your favorite pizza toppings, so the filling can follow the toppings you want in the rolls.
A helpful detail is to keep the dough pieces cut into 6 even portions before adding them to the greased muffin tin. That keeps the recipe aligned with the six-roll method from start to finish.
