These 11 Minute Cheesy Pepperoni Pizza Roll Ups are a quick, delicious snack or meal featuring low-carb tortillas stuffed with melty mozzarella, spicy pepperoni, and marinara sauce, baked to golden perfection with a crispy olive oil brushed exterior.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Roll Ups

  • 2 low-carb tortillas (Mission Carb Balance preferred)
  • 1/2 cup freshly shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 12 slices pepperoni (greasy, slightly spicy type that curls when baked)
  • 1/4 cup marinara sauce (divided, about 2 tbsp per tortilla)
  • 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning (rubbed between fingers to release flavor)
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder (not garlic salt)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (for brushing)

Instructions

  1. Prep the Tortillas: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lay tortillas flat on a clean surface. Spread about 2 tablespoons of marinara sauce evenly over each tortilla, leaving a half-inch border around the edges to prevent leaking.
  2. Layer Cheese and Pepperoni: Sprinkle freshly shredded mozzarella evenly over the marinara sauce on each tortilla. Arrange 12 slices of pepperoni on top, slightly overlapping near edges so every bite includes pepperoni and to avoid bare spots.
  3. Roll and Bake: Roll each tortilla tightly from one end without tearing. Brush the outside with olive oil to promote a golden crisp crust. Place roll ups seam-side down on a baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, until golden brown and cheese bubbles out the ends. Allow to cool briefly before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Use freshly shredded mozzarella for the best melty texture; pre-shredded cheese tends not to melt as well.
  • Choose high-quality pepperoni that is slightly greasy and spicy for authentic flavor and curling effect.
  • Do not over-sauce to avoid soggy tortillas; a thin even layer is key.
  • Brushing with olive oil ensures a crispy golden exterior.
  • These roll-ups are best enjoyed warm right out of the oven for optimal gooey cheese and crispy texture.
