Pizza Pinwheels
Pizza pinwheels are a fun and tasty twist on traditional pizza, featuring a crispy outside and cheesy, savory filling, perfect for parties or snacks.
Ingredients
For the Pinwheels
- 1 dough pizza dough See notes for homemade or store-bought options.
- ½ cup pizza sauce
- 3 ½ ounces thinly sliced ham
- ½ cup pineapple tidbits
- 10 ounces shredded mozzarella
- 2 tablespoons minced chives Optional for garnish.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Form the pizza dough into a rectangular shape, using the backside of an 18"x13" baking sheet.
- Spread the pizza sauce over the dough, leaving ½ inch without sauce at one of the short ends.
- Add the ham, pineapple, and mozzarella over the sauce.
- Roll the pizza, starting at the short end with the sauce right to the edge. Use the edge without sauce to seal the roll, pinching the dough together if necessary.
- Cut the pizza roll into 8 equal pieces and place them on a non-stick or parchment paper-lined pan.
Baking
- Bake for 20 minutes, until the pizza dough is cooked through.
- Sprinkle the top with some minced chives if using.
Notes
Pizza pinwheels can be served warm as a snack or appetizer, ideal for dipping in extra pizza sauce or ranch dressing. They last 3-4 days in the refrigerator or can be frozen for up to 2 months.
