Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour (with xanthan gum)
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
Wet Ingredients
- 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Filling
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
- 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup mini pepperoni slices or chopped regular pepperoni
Instructions
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Sheet: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and help with easy cleanup.
- Make the Dough: In a large bowl, whisk together gluten-free flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and dried oregano. Add the Greek yogurt and olive oil, mixing until a flexible dough forms. If the dough feels too sticky, sprinkle in a little more flour until manageable.
- Roll Out Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out into a rectangle roughly 1/4 inch thick, ensuring an even thickness for uniform baking.
- Add Toppings: Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough’s surface. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese followed by mini or chopped pepperoni slices across the sauce.
- Form Rolls: Starting at one long edge, carefully roll the dough into a tight log. Using a sharp knife, slice the log into 1-inch thick pieces and place them cut side up on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
- Apply Egg Wash: Brush the tops of each roll with beaten egg to give them a beautiful golden color and shiny finish when baked.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 18–22 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through. Keep an eye to prevent overbrowning.
- Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let the pizza rolls cool slightly before serving to enjoy warm, melty pizza goodness.
Notes
- Customize with your favorite pizza toppings like olives, mushrooms, or cooked sausage for variety.
- To make this recipe dairy-free, substitute the Greek yogurt and mozzarella cheese with dairy-free alternatives.
- These pizza rolls freeze well. Reheat in the oven or air fryer to restore crispiness and warmth.
