Ingredients

Homemade Dough

⅔ cup warm water 110 degrees
1 ½ tsp yeast
2 tsp sugar
2 cups flour separated
1 tbsp oil
½ tsp EACH: salt, garlic powder, oregano

Toppings

2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
¼ cup grated parmesan cheese optional
1 ½ cup marinara or pizza sauce
½ cup pepperoni about 30 slices

Instructions

The first step is to prepare the pizza dough. In the bowl of your stand up mixer, add the warm water, yeast and sugar. Lightly whisk together with a fork. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes while you gather your other dough ingredients.
Now add in 1 1/2 cups of flour, the oil, and the seasonings. Mix on low speed for 3-4 minutes. Add the remaining 1/2 cup of flour and continue to mix until the dough for another 3 minutes (or until the flour is combined and starts to form into a ball).
Form the dough into a ball with your hands and add it to a well oiled bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it sit in a warm spot for about an hour. The dough will double in size.
After an hour, roll out the dough onto a floured surface. The dough should be rolled into a medium/large rectangle.
Time to add the pizza toppings! Add a layer of pizza sauce, then layer the pepperoni, then add the cheeses.
Slowly roll the dough into a log, pressing in the sides as you roll it up. Cut it into 6 rolls. Place the rolls down flat in a greased 8x8 inch pan.
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. And let the rolls rest for 15 minutes while your oven preheats.
Bake in preheated oven for 22-25 minutes. Enjoy!
