  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp salt
Filling Ingredients
  • 24 slices turkey pepperoni
  • 0.5 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tbsp pizza sauce
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 0.5 tsp garlic powder
Topping Ingredients
  • 1 tbsp melted butter
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Mixing bowl
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Sharp knife

Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, Greek yogurt, baking powder, and salt. Mix until a dough forms.
  3. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 2-3 minutes until smooth. If dough feels sticky, work in an extra tablespoon of flour.
  4. Let the dough rest for 5 minutes, then roll into a 12x9-inch rectangle, approximately ¼ inch thick.
  5. Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a ½-inch border around all edges.
  6. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning and garlic powder, then layer the mozzarella cheese and pepperoni slices evenly over the sauce.
  7. Starting from the long side, tightly roll the dough into a log using both hands to maintain even pressure.
  8. Using a sharp knife dipped in water between cuts, slice the log into 12 equal pieces, about 1 inch thick each.
  9. Place the rolls cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  10. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with Italian seasoning. Brush this mixture over the tops of the rolls and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
  11. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown and the cheese is bubbly. For extra crispy tops, broil for the last 1-2 minutes, watching carefully.
  12. Let rolls cool for 5 minutes before serving.
