HOW TO MAKE Gluten Free Pizza Rolls

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose gluten-free flour blend
• 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum (omit if your blend already contains it)
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 3/4 cup nonfat Greek-style plain yogurt
• 2 tablespoons lukewarm water (plus more as necessary)
• 4 ounces low-moisture mozzarella cheese (diced)
• 1/2 cup Simple Tomato Sauce (or your favorite tomato sauce) (plus more for serving)
• Heavy whipping cream (for brushing)

STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat Your Oven

First, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This helps the pizza rolls cook evenly. Next, line a rimmed baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper. This prevents the pizza rolls from sticking.

Prepare the Pizza Dough

In a large bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, xanthan gum (if needed), baking powder, and kosher salt. Mix well. Then, add the Greek yogurt and the lukewarm water. Stir until the dough comes together. If the dough is too dry, add more water a little at a time.

Shape the Pizza Dough

Once your dough is ready, place it on a clean surface. Lightly dust the surface with some gluten-free flour to prevent sticking. Roll the dough out into a rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick. Aim for an even thickness.

Fill the Dough

Cut the rolled-out dough into squares, about 3 inches by 3 inches. Place a small spoonful of diced mozzarella cheese and a bit of tomato sauce in the center of each square. Be careful not to overfill, as this can cause the rolls to burst during baking.

Bake the Pizza Rolls

Fold each square over to create a triangle. Press the edges to seal well. Place the sealed pizza rolls on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with heavy whipping cream to give them a nice golden color. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until they are golden brown and puffed.

 

 

HOW TO SERVE Gluten Free Pizza Rolls

Serve your gluten-free pizza rolls warm. You can set a bowl of extra tomato sauce on the side for dipping. This makes the rolls even tastier. They are great as a snack, an appetizer, or party treat.

STORAGE & FREEZING : Gluten Free Pizza Rolls

If you have leftover pizza rolls, store them in an airtight container in the fridge. They can stay fresh for about 2-3 days. To freeze, let them cool completely. Then, place them in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze until solid. After that, transfer them to a freezer-safe bag. They can last for up to two months in the freezer. When you are ready to eat them, reheat in the oven until hot.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS

You can serve gluten-free pizza rolls with various sides. A fresh salad goes well with them. You can also serve some fresh veggies like carrots and celery with ranch dressing. For a fun twist, try serving them with a variety of dipping sauces. This adds flavor and excitement to the meal.

VARIATIONS

Feel free to make these pizza rolls your own. You can change the cheese to cheddar, pepper jack, or even a non-dairy cheese if you prefer. For added flavor, consider mixing in some pepperoni, cooked sausage, or vegetables like bell peppers and mushrooms into the filling. The choices are endless and delicious!

FAQs
