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
- Unroll the crescent roll dough and press the perforations together to form one sheet.
- Layer the pepperoni slices evenly over the dough.
- Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top.
- Roll the dough into a tight log.
- Bake at 350°F for 15–20 minutes, or air fry at 360°F for 8–10 minutes.
- Brush the top with melted butter and sprinkle with Italian seasoning.
- 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.
