Ingredients
Scale
Base
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
Toppings
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 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 Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
- Spread Sauce: Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface and evenly spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over each tortilla, ensuring full coverage without over-saturating.
- Add Toppings: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce, then distribute pepperoni slices or diced cooked ham, chopped bell peppers, and a light dusting of dried oregano on top for flavor.
- 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 pieces, creating individual pizza rolls.
- Prepare for Baking: Place the rolls cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly brush the tops with olive oil to help them brown and crisp evenly during baking.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and the cheese inside is bubbling and melted.
- Garnish and Serve: Once baked, optionally garnish with grated parmesan, red pepper flakes, or fresh basil for added flavor and presentation. Serve the tortilla pizza rolls warm for the best taste and texture.
Notes
- Use any variety of tortillas such as whole wheat or gluten-free for dietary needs.
- Customize toppings with vegetables, different cheeses, or proteins to suit preferences.
- For spicier rolls, add red pepper flakes inside before rolling.
- Assemble rolls in advance and refrigerate until ready to bake.
- These rolls can be frozen after baking; reheat in the oven or air fryer for best results.
