Ingredients
Scale
Biscuit Dough Mixture
- 2 (7 oz) tubes refrigerated biscuit dough
- 4 tbsp butter, melted
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp dried parsley
- 1/2 cup pepperoni slices, cut into small pieces
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
For Serving (Optional)
- Marinara sauce for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure it reaches the ideal temperature for baking your pizza rolls.
- Prepare the Biscuit Dough: Cut each tube of biscuit dough into 4 equal pieces, then place all pieces into a large mixing bowl for easy combining.
- Combine Ingredients: Pour the melted butter over the biscuit pieces, then add the garlic powder, dried parsley, chopped pepperoni, and shredded mozzarella cheese. Toss everything together until the mixture is well coated and evenly distributed.
- Prepare the Muffin Tin: Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin to prevent sticking and spoon the biscuit mixture evenly into 9 to 12 of the cups, depending on your preferred size for the rolls.
- Bake the Rolls: Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the rolls have puffed up, turned golden brown, and the cheese is bubbling and melted.
- Serve Warm: Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. For an extra burst of flavor, serve with marinara sauce on the side for dipping.
Notes
- Cutting the biscuit dough into smaller pieces helps the ingredients combine better and ensures even baking.
- You can substitute pepperoni with other meats or vegetables if desired.
- Make sure to grease the muffin tin well to avoid any sticking and to help the rolls come out easily.
- These rolls are best served fresh and warm but can be reheated in the oven for a crispy texture.
- Optional marinara sauce adds a classic pizza flavor that complements the rolls perfectly.
