Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb pizza dough room temperature for easier rolling
  • 5 tbsp unsalted butter, melted divided
  • 1.5 tbsp minced garlic
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped divided
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 0.25 tsp crushed red pepper flakes optional
  • 0.5 tsp kosher salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper
  • 1.25 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 0.75 cup grated Parmesan cheese divided
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour for dusting
  • 1 tbsp olive oil for the pan
  • 1 cup marinara sauce warmed, for serving

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Heat oven to 400°F. Brush a 9-inch pan or skillet with olive oil.
  • Stir together melted butter, minced garlic, 1 tbsp parsley, Italian seasoning, red pepper, salt, and pepper.
  • Lightly flour your work surface. Roll dough into a roughly 12x15-inch rectangle.
  • Brush the dough with about half of the garlic-butter mixture.
  • Scatter mozzarella and half of the Parmesan evenly over the dough.
  • Roll up tightly from a long side. Pinch the seam to seal and turn seam-side down.
  • Slice the log into 12 even pieces. Arrange cut-sides up in the prepared pan.
  • Brush tops with more garlic butter. Sprinkle on the remaining Parmesan.
  • Bake 16–18 minutes, until puffed and golden at the edges and cheese is bubbly.
  • Brush with any remaining garlic butter and sprinkle the last 1 tbsp parsley. Rest 5 minutes before serving with warm marinara.

Notes

Try adding a layer of thin-sliced pepperoni or cooked sausage before rolling. For crispier bottoms, bake on a preheated pizza stone. Leftovers keep 2 days in the fridge; reheat at 350°F for 8–10 minutes or air-fry at 350°F for 4–5 minutes.
