Storage Tips

Want to save some for later? Storing leftover pizza rolls is simple. Allow them to cool completely, then place them in an airtight container. They can be refrigerated for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze them in a single layer before transferring to a freezer-safe bag. To reheat, pop them in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes until heated through.

Pro Chef Tips

To elevate your pizza rolls, here are a few tips:

• Make sure to roll the crust tightly for consistent sizes and compact fillings.
• Don’t overload the toppings; less is often more to avoid sogginess.
• Brush the tops with a little olive oil or melted butter before baking for an extra crispy finish.

Creative Twists for Your Pizza Rolls

Feel adventurous? Experiment with different fillings to create your own unique versions. Try replacing the pepperoni with cooked sausage, vegetables, or even sweet combinations like Nutella and banana for dessert rolls. The crust can also be enhanced with herbs or spices for added flavor.
