03 - 1 teaspoon sugar
04 - 3/4 teaspoon salt
05 - 3/4 cup warm water

10 - 1/2 cup diced bell peppers
11 - 1/4 cup diced red onion
12 - 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
13 - 1/2 teaspoon dried basil

→ Topping

14 - 2 tablespoons melted butter or olive oil
15 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder
16 - 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese (halal certified)
17 - 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

# How-To:

01 - In a large bowl, combine flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Add warm water and olive oil. Mix to form a soft dough. Knead for 5–7 minutes until smooth. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes or until doubled in size.
02 - Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
03 - Punch down the dough and roll out on a lightly floured surface into a 12x10-inch rectangle.
04 - Spread pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Sprinkle mozzarella, halal pepperoni, bell peppers, red onion, oregano, and basil evenly over the sauce.
05 - Starting from the long side, tightly roll up the dough into a log. Pinch the seam to seal.
06 - Slice the log into 1-inch pieces and place cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
07 - Brush the tops with melted butter or olive oil. Sprinkle with garlic powder, Parmesan cheese, and parsley.
08 - Bake for 18–20 minutes or until golden brown and bubbling.
09 - Let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with extra pizza sauce for dipping.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • Bite sized perfection means no juggling plates while cheering for your team
  • The halal ingredients let everyone at the party indulge without second guessing
  • They reheat beautifully so you can make them ahead and warm them up when guests arrive
02 -
  • Do not overfill the dough or the cheese will leak out during baking and create a mess
  • Let the rolls cool slightly before serving, otherwise the cheese will slide right off when you bite in
  • If the dough feels too sticky while rolling, dust your hands with a little flour
03 -
  • Use dental floss to slice the log instead of a knife for perfectly clean cuts
  • If the rolls are browning too fast, tent with foil for the last 5 minutes
