Easy Pepperoni Rolls Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can these easy pepperoni rolls be frozen and reheated?

Yes! Follow all of the steps and fully bake the pepperoni rolls. Allow them to cool completely and then freeze them in an air-tight container. To reheat the pepperoni rolls, bake them in the oven at 350Â°F for 10-15 minutes.

2. Can easy pepperoni rolls be prepared ahead of time and baked before serving? Possibly. Pillsbury dough is formulated to be baked right after you open the tube of dough. For the best possible results, use bread dough instead of Pillsbury dough to prepare the pepperoni rolls ahead of time.

3. If I can’t purchase Pillsbury biscuits, what can I use instead? Bread dough is a great alternative to Pillsbury biscuits. An easy option is Rhodes frozen bread dough. Follow the directions on the package for thawing the dough so that it is ready when you want to make the pepperoni rolls. Another option is to use crescent roll dough.

4. Can I use Pillsbury Grands biscuits instead? Yes! Cut the biscuits in half before flattening them since they are bigger in size.

5. Is the egg wash necessary? The egg wash helps the toppings stick and tops of the pepperoni rolls brown. They can be made without it if preferred.

6. Can other cheeses be used? Definitely! Use whichever cheese you prefer. You can even use shredded cheese, cheese sticks or string cheese.

7. What about other toppings and fillings? These pepperoni rolls can easily be turned into anything you want! I’ve made sausage pizza balls, mac ‘n cheese balls, bacon cheeseburger pizza balls, cheese bombs, and taco bites.
