ROSE PIZZA RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375° and spray a muffin tin with cooking spray. On a lightly floured surface, unroll crescent dough and separate into 4 rectangles. If the dough has perforated edges, pinch together to seal. Using a pizza cutter, cut each rectangle of dough lengthwise into three 1”-wide strips. Spread a very thin layer of sauce onto each strip. Sprinkle with cheeses, then layer pepperoni on top half of each strip so that they’re slightly overlapping and the top halves of the pepperoni slices are off the pastry. Fold up bottom half of dough and tightly roll. Transfer to prepared muffin tin and bake until golden, 15-20 minutes. Serve warm.

Steps:

• In a food processor, combine the tomato sauce, tomato paste, onion, garlic and oregano. Blend well until you reach a smooth consistency.
• Transfer to a squeeze bottle for easy application. Preheat the oven to 425ºF.
• Lay out or unroll the premade pizza dough (I use premade pizza dough because it tends to cook flatter than homemade pizza dough, which is better for this recipe). Sprinkle with some all purpose flour and roll it out flat or slightly flatter than it was unrolled.
• Cut the pizza lengthwise into 2 inch wide slices (like a ruler).
• Cut each of the mozzarella slices into three 2 inch wide slices. (same width as the dough)
• Cut the pepperoni slices in half to resemble a half moon shape.
• Lay down the mozzarella cheese slices on top of the dough.
• Add a line of pizza sauce at one end of the mozzarella cheese.
• Place a slice of pepperoni on the top part of the mozzarella slice opposite the line of sauce. Continue to add more slices of pepperoni slightly overlapping along the length of the dough.
• Starting at one end, roll the dough up keeping the slices of pepperoni in place. Repeat with the rest of the ingredients.
• Add each rolled up rose to a muffin tray. Sprinkle with some oregano and bake for roughly 15 minutes. Enjoy!
