Ingredients
Scale
Base
- 4 large flour tortillas
Sauce and Cheese
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Toppings
- 1/2 cup pepperoni slices or diced cooked ham
- 1/4 cup chopped bell peppers
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
Finishing
- Olive oil for brushing
- Optional: grated parmesan, red pepper flakes, fresh basil
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for baking.
- Prepare the tortillas: Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface and spread a thin, even layer of pizza sauce over each tortilla.
- Add cheese and toppings: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce, then distribute pepperoni slices (or diced cooked ham), chopped bell peppers, and dried oregano over the cheese.
- Roll and slice: Carefully roll each tortilla tightly into a log shape. Using a sharp knife, slice the rolled tortillas into approximately 1-inch thick rolls.
- Arrange and brush: Place the slices cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly brush the tops with olive oil to help them brown and crisp during baking.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.
- Garnish and serve: Optional—sprinkle with grated parmesan, red pepper flakes, or fresh basil to enhance flavor. Serve the rolls warm.
Notes
- Use any pizza toppings you like for customization, such as mushrooms, olives, or onions.
- For a crispier crust, brush olive oil on both sides of the tortilla before adding toppings.
- These rolls are best served fresh and warm but can be reheated in the oven for a few minutes.
- To make this recipe vegetarian, substitute pepperoni or ham with extra vegetables or a plant-based meat alternative.
- Leftover rolls can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
