When you have some children, it’s important to have a list of family favorite recipes on hand that you can cycle through. You want recipes that everyone loves and is excited about. Reality is that you won’t please everyone, but there are some things that really hit big. These homemade pizza rolls are just that.
Pizza Rolls are a big hit in my family. They are different, have a great pizza sauce and cheese, as well as a great crust.
They are not hard to make. You basically make the dough, flatten it out, throw some toppings on it and roll it up. The kids really love them. We took them on picnics or to home school co-ops this past summer. Very handy to keep in the freezer as well. They freeze well uncooked.
Make a double batch and put half in the freezer for later, then just pull out a tray for a lunch on a busy day.
- Roll up, starting with long side. Pinch seam together to close
- Slice 1 inch rolls and place in a greased pan
- Bake at 350 F for 20-25 minutes, or until golden on top
- Serve with hot Homemade Pizza Sauce for dipping
