Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Pepperoni Pizza Crescent Rolls are made by spreading pizza sauce on crescent rolls, sprinkling mozzarella cheese and pepperoni all over the dough, rolling them up, placing each into a Bundt pan, and then baked until golden brown. A fun and easy dinner or weekend lunch idea the whole family will love.

If you love anything with the flavor of pizza in it, then I have a recipe that’s going to hit the spot. This delicious recipe is loaded with all the flavor we love in our pizza but wrapped up in crescent roll dough. It makes a delicious appetizer, snack, or even a fun dinner. I love to serve these to friends and family when we have parties, and I’ll often whip up a batch for movie nights, as well. If you’re a parent, these are great because they make the perfect after-school snack for your children and their friends. Every bite is overflowing with zesty pizza deliciousness and the buttery, flaky texture and flavor of crescent rolls.

Pepperoni Pizza Crescent Rolls

These delicious snacks start with a base of crescent roll dough that cooks up to golden perfection in a bundt pan. But before we bake it, we stuff it full of pizza sauce, mozzarella cheese, and pepperoni. Then, we coat it with melted butter, dried parsley, and parmesan cheese. What we end up with is a golden, flaky snack that’s flaky on the outside, doughy and fluffy on the inside, and filled with everything we love in our pizza. It’s a recipe that will satisfy anyone. If you love pizza, you’ll love this recipe!
