Instructions
Follow these simple steps to create your amazing Mozzarella Pepperoni Croissant Rolls:
1. Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Dough: Unroll the refrigerated croissant dough and separate it into triangles as per the package instructions.
3. Add Filling: Place a small handful of shredded mozzarella cheese and a few pepperoni slices at the wide end of each dough triangle. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning, if using.
4. Roll the Croissants: Starting from the wide end, carefully roll the dough triangle towards the point, encasing the filling well.
5. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place each rolled croissant on the lined baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced out evenly.
6. Create Egg Wash: In a small bowl, whisk the egg and brush the mixture over each croissant for a golden finish.
7. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the croissants are golden brown and puffed.
