Ingredients:
- 1 tube (390g) refrigerated pizza crust dough
- 150g shredded whole milk mozzarella cheese
- 100g high-quality pepperoni slices
- 2g dried oregano
- 1g red pepper flakes
- 45g unsalted butter
- 3 cloves fresh garlic, finely minced
- 5g fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 15g grated parmesan cheese
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter and stir in the minced garlic. Set aside half for the post-bake glaze.
- On a lightly floured surface, unroll the pizza dough and gently stretch it into a 12x8 inch rectangle.
- Spread half of the garlic butter over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border. Evenly sprinkle the shredded mozzarella, then layer the pepperoni slices so they overlap slightly. Top with dried oregano and red pepper flakes.
- Starting from the long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log. For best results, par-chill the log in the freezer for 5-10 minutes to firm up.
- Using a serrated knife, slice the log into 12-14 even pinwheels. Place them cut-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 18 minutes, or until the exterior reaches a deep mahogany-colored crust.
- Combine the remaining garlic butter with fresh parsley and grated parmesan. Brush the hot pinwheels with this mixture immediately after removing from the oven.
