These Pizza Pinwheels are a delightful treat with gooey cheese, savory pepperoni, and a quick prep time. Perfect for a cozy night or party snack!

  • Refrigerated pizza dough
  • Marinara sauce
  • Garlic powder
  • Italian seasoning
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Red pepper flakes
  • Shredded mozzarella
  • Grated parmesan
  • Pepperoni slices
  • Parsley

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Roll out the refrigerated pizza dough until about ¼–⅓ inch thick.
  • Spread marinara sauce over the dough, leaving a one-inch clean edge.
  • Sprinkle garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes over the sauce.
  • Layer shredded mozzarella, grated parmesan, and pepperoni slices evenly.
  • Roll the dough tightly from the long edge, ensuring ingredients stay in place.
  • Slice the rolled dough into one-inch thick pinwheels.
  • Place pinwheels on the baking sheet with space between each.
  • Bake for 22–25 minutes until golden brown and puffed up.

Notes

For easy handling, allow cold pizza dough to sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before rolling.
Pinwheel slices should be uniform in thickness to ensure even cooking.
