How to Make Easy Pizza Roses

Step 1: Preheat Oven

Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce along each strip. Sprinkle with shredded cheese and layer slices of pepperoni along one edge, allowing them to overlap slightly.

Step 4: Roll

Carefully roll each strip from the topping edge to form a rose shape. Place each rolled rose into the prepared muffin tin. Brush with beaten egg.

Step 5: Bake

Bake for 15–20 minutes or until the puff pastry is golden and cheese is melted.

Step 6: Serve

Remove from the tin and garnish with fresh basil or parsley. Serve warm.
