Place pepperoni and mozzarella over crescent dough. It’s a game-day favorite!

There's something magical about the smell of fresh pizza wafting through the house, but let's be real—sometimes we just don't have the time to make dough from scratch. Enter Easy Pizza Crescent Rolls! These delightful little bites are perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a fun appetizer for a casual get-together. I first stumbled upon this idea during a particularly hectic week at work, and it quickly became a family favorite. They're simple, delicious, and a great way to get the kids involved in the kitchen.

These pizza crescent rolls are quite versatile and pair wonderfully with a simple green salad or a bowl of tomato soup for a complete meal. If you're serving them as appetizers, consider adding a platter of fresh veggies and dip to balance out the flavors. A side of marinara sauce for dipping is also a must-have!

Servings: 8 rolls

1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
1/2 cup pizza sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
16 slices pepperoni
1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Optional: grated Parmesan cheese for sprinkling

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 triangles.

Spread a small amount of pizza sauce over each triangle, leaving a little space around the edges.

Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then place two slices of pepperoni on each triangle.

Starting at the wide end, roll up each triangle and place them on the prepared baking sheet.

Sprinkle the tops with Italian seasoning and, if desired, a bit of grated Parmesan cheese.

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.

Let them cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Feel free to get creative with the fillings! You can swap out the pepperoni for cooked sausage, mushrooms, or bell peppers for a veggie version. For a spicier kick, add a few red pepper flakes to the sauce. If you're looking for a healthier option, try using whole wheat crescent roll dough. These rolls are also great for using up leftovers—think cooked chicken or ham with a sprinkle of cheddar cheese.
