This Giant Pizza Roll is crazy easy to make and is a super simple way to get creative with your pizza. It’s as simple as rolling out some pizza dough, par baking it, topping it with your favorite pizza toppings and then cutting and rolling it up into a giant pizza roll. It definitely is a fun, new, interesting way to get to nom on some pizza!

Really and truly, it doesn’t get much easier than this. You could go with whatever pizza dough you fancy, but I just grabbed a tube of refrigerated dough to keep it simple today. I also kept it really simple with standard pepperoni and cheese, but you could add your favorites in like sliced olives, mushrooms, or any other pizza toppers.

To lighten this up, there really wasn’t too much to do other than use a turkey pepperoni and a fat free mozzarella. Other than that, the sauce and the dough are pretty standard across the board unless you went with a homemade or wheat dough. I found that I needed to use a couple of toothpicks to keep the last piece of dough attached to the others but otherwise this guy stayed together really well during baking.

I ended up slicing this like you would any other pizza, which worked out pretty well. But of course, like with a cinnamon roll, the cheesy saucy middle was the part fought over!

Ingredients

1 (13.8 Oz.) Can Refrigerated Pizza Dough
1 C. Pizza Sauce
8 Oz. Shredded Fat Free Mozzarella
40 Slices Turkey Pepperoni

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. and lightly coat the inside of a 8x8" or 9x9" spring form pan with non-stick baking spray and set aside.
Lightly coat a baking sheet with non-stick spray or parchment as well and set it aside too.
Set out the pizza dough and use a rolling pin to roll it out a bit.
Place it on the prepared baking sheet and par bake the dough for about 6 minutes. Cool slightly to be able to handle the dough.
Spread the 1 C. pizza sauce over the dough and sprinkle the 8 Oz. Shredded Fat Free Mozzarella over the top followed by the 40 Turkey Pepperoni Slices.
Use a pizza cutter and cut the dough lengthwise into 5 strips.
Start rolling the strips of pizza up and keep going, adding each strip to the outside of the last so that you have one big 'cinnamon roll' style pizza.
Place the pizza roll into the prepared pan and transfer to the oven to bake for 25-35 minutes.
Once done, remove from the oven and cool slightly before cutting to serve!
