Tips for the Best Pizza Rolls
- Use fresh pizza dough for the best texture.
- Crisp the bacon before adding it to prevent sogginess.
- For extra cheesiness, add a little Parmesan on top before baking.
- Make ahead and refrigerate unbaked rolls for up to 24 hours.
Storage and Reheating
- Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes.
- Freeze unbaked rolls for up to 2 months; bake straight from the freezer at 375°F (190°C) for 20-22 minutes.
