Pepperoni Pizza Bites (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Base

01 - A single sheet of pizza dough
02 - Half a cup of pizza sauce

→ Toppings

03 - 1 cup of cheese, shredded
04 - Half a cup of thin pepperoni rounds

# Instructions:

01 - Follow the dough's instructions for preheating your oven.
02 - Slice the dough into 2-inch strips, then press them wider until they're about 3 inches across to cook evenly.
03 - Smear sauce on just one side of each strip. Add cheese, layer with some pepperoni slightly overlapping, and sprinkle extra cheese on top.
04 - Fold the plain side of the strip over the layered toppings, then roll it up tightly to shape a rose.
05 - Set the rolled-up roses onto a parchment-covered baking sheet. Let the pepperoni edges fan out a little for flair if you'd like.
06 - Bake these on the oven's bottom rack for 12-15 minutes until they look golden. If the pepperoni looks like it's browning too much, cover them loosely with foil.

# Notes:

01 - Feel free to add your favorite pizza toppings before rolling up.
02 - Spice up the pizza sauce with extra seasonings or hot sauce if you want more flavor.
03 - These go great with dipping sauces or extra warm pizza sauce on the side.
04 - Let them cool for a few minutes so the cheese sets before you share.
