Pepperoni Pinwheels Ingredients

To make pepperoni pinwheels, you’ll need pepperonis. Of course, which pepperonis you choose is up to you. What will make it even better is the mozzarella and the oregano.

That is where the pizza taste will come from. There are also a few ingredients on the list that play more of a supporting role than anything else. The egg is one of those ingredients, and the crescent rolls, while flavorful, will be more like a vessel to get to the goodness from the cheese and pepperoni.

Pepperoni Pinwheels Recipe Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Chop the pepperoni, and in a small bowl, blend the first four ingredients.

Unroll the crescent rolls and separate the dough into eight rectangles.  You will not separate them into the triangles needed for actual crescent rolls.  Press the seam and perforations together to sear.
