Description

A warm, cheesy, crowd-pleasing pepperoni bread made with crescent roll dough, melty mozzarella, and savory pepperoni. Quick to assemble, perfectly versatile, and delicious baked or air-fried.


Ingredients

1 can crescent roll dough (8 count)

20 pepperoni slices

1/4 cup mozzarella cheese

1 tbsp butter, melted

1 tsp Italian seasoning


Instructions

  1. Unroll the crescent roll dough and press the perforations together to form one sheet.
  2. Layer the pepperoni slices evenly over the dough.
  3. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top.
  4. Roll the dough into a tight log.
  5. Bake at 350°F for 15–20 minutes, or air fry at 360°F for 8–10 minutes.
  6. Brush the top with melted butter and sprinkle with Italian seasoning.
  7. Let cool slightly, slice, and serve warm—optional marinara for dipping.

Notes

Add sliced olives or chopped bell peppers for extra flavor.

Swap cheeses: cheddar, provolone, or Italian blends all work well.

Add crushed red pepper for heat.

Do not overfill to keep rolling easy and prevent leaks.

Reheat in oven or air fryer for best crispness.
