Tortilla Pizza Rolls Recipe

Introduction

Tortilla pizza rolls are a fun and easy twist on classic pizza. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious, handheld snack that’s perfect for any occasion.

A white plate holds seven small pizza rolls, each shaped like a swirl with multiple layers. The outer dough is golden brown with a slightly crispy texture, and inside the spiral are melted mozzarella cheese and tomato sauce, giving the rolls a rich orange and red tint. Each roll is topped with a single piece of browned pepperoni, slightly curled at the edges. The melted cheese looks gooey and shiny, oozing a bit around the edges of the rolls.

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup pizza sauce
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup pepperoni slices
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for baking the rolls to a crispy golden brown.
  2. Spread Sauce: Evenly spread a generous layer of pizza sauce over the surface of each tortilla, covering it completely for full flavor in every bite.
  3. Add Cheese: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese uniformly on top of the sauce, allowing it to melt and bind the ingredients together during baking.
  4. Top with Pepperoni and Seasoning: Arrange pepperoni slices evenly over the cheese, then sprinkle the Italian seasoning to add an aromatic, herby flavor.
  5. Roll Tortillas: Carefully roll each tortilla tightly from one edge to the other to form compact rolls that hold the fillings securely inside.
  6. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the rolled tortillas seam-side down on a baking sheet to prevent them from unrolling during baking.
  7. Bake: Bake for 15-20 minutes in the preheated oven or until the tortillas turn golden brown and the cheese inside is melted and bubbly.
  8. Slice and Serve: Remove from the oven, allow to cool slightly, then slice each roll into bite-sized pieces and serve warm for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • For a vegetarian version, omit the pepperoni or substitute with vegetables like sliced bell peppers or mushrooms.
  • You can use whole wheat tortillas for a healthier alternative.
  • Feel free to add other pizza toppings such as olives, onions, or green peppers before rolling.
  • Serve with extra pizza sauce or ranch dressing for dipping.
  • Leftover rolls can be refrigerated and warmed up in the oven or microwave.
