Instructions
00:00 Introduction
00:33 Prepare pizza dough as per instructions. Once dough is finished rising, turn out onto a lightly floured surface, knead briefly to create a smooth and cohesive dough (about 3-5 times) and roll dough into a 15x9” (38 x 23cm) rectangle.
04:55 Brush surface of the dough lightly with olive oil. Spread pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a ¼” (0.6cm) perimeter around the edges. Sprinkle cheese evenly over the sauce. Layer pepperoni evenly on top of the cheese, if using.
06:38 Starting with the longer end of the rectangle, roll tightly into a log. Place on a parchment paper lined baking tray or plate and transfer to the refrigerator to chill for at least 15 minutes (if chilling longer than 15 minutes, cover with plastic wrap). This will make the roll easier to cut and less likely to spring apart in the oven. While pizza roll is chilling, preheat oven to 400F (205C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
07:30 Once oven is preheated, remove log from the refrigerator and use a serrated knife to cut pizza roll into 1” (2.5cm) segments. Lay these flat on prepared baking sheet, spacing rolls at least 1” (2.5cm) apart.
08:22 Use a pastry brush to lightly brush the surface of each roll with melted butter.
08:53 Transfer to center rack of 400F (205C) preheated oven and bake for 15-18 minutes until edges are golden brown.
09:05 After removing from the oven sprinkle tops with parmesan cheese and fresh basil, if desired. Allow to cool slightly before enjoying.
