These Doritos Pizza Rolls are the ultimate cheesy, crunchy, and flavorful snack! Made with beef sausage, mini pepperoni, gooey mozzarella, and a bold Nacho Cheese Doritos crust, they are perfect for game nights, parties, or a fun twist on traditional pizza.
Ingredients
For the Pizza Rolls:
- 1 can refrigerated pizza dough (for a soft, flaky crust)
- ½ cup pizza sauce (adds classic pizza flavor)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (melts perfectly for that gooey texture)
- ½ cup mini pepperoni slices (small but packed with flavor)
- ½ cup cooked beef sausage, crumbled or sliced (pre-cooked and seasoned for rich, savory bites)
For the Doritos Coating:
- 1 cup crushed Nacho Cheese Doritos (adds crunch and bold cheesy flavor)
- ¼ cup melted butter (helps the coating stick and adds richness)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (for extra depth of flavor)
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (brings a classic Italian herb taste)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Prepare the Dough
- Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface.
- Cut it into small rectangles, ensuring each piece is large enough to hold the filling without being too bulky.
Step 3: Fill and Roll
- Spread a small amount of pizza sauce on each rectangle.
- Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
- Add mini pepperoni slices and a small amount of cooked beef sausage.
- Carefully roll up each rectangle, pinching the edges together to seal the fillings inside.
Step 4: Coat with Doritos Crunch
- In a bowl, combine crushed Doritos, melted butter, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.
- Roll each pizza roll in the Doritos mixture, ensuring a full coating.
Step 5: Bake to Perfection
- Place the coated pizza rolls on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Step 6: Serve & Enjoy!
- Let the pizza rolls cool slightly before serving.
- Serve with extra pizza sauce for dipping for an added burst of flavor.
