How to Make Vegan Pizza Rolls
Make the Dough:

Divide and Rest:
Divide the dough into two portions and let them rest again for 15 minutes.
First Roll and Fold:
Roll out one dough ball, brush with olive oil or vegan butter, and fold it into an envelope shape. Chill for 30 minutes.
Final Roll-Out:
Roll the rested dough into a large square and spread pizza sauce evenly across the surface. Layer on your favorite vegan cheese and toppings.
Add Fillings and Shape:
Roll the dough into a log and slice it into 18 pieces.
Bake:
Place the rolls on a baking tray, brush with olive oil or butter, and bake at 180°C (fan-assisted) for 35 minutes until golden brown.
Tips for Perfect Pizza Rolls
- Let the dough rest: This makes it easier to roll and shape.
- Don’t overfill: Too many toppings can cause the rolls to burst while baking.
- Brush generously: Olive oil or melted vegan butter is key to golden, crispy rolls.
- Bake without preheating: Starting in a cold oven allows the rolls to puff up perfectly.
What to Serve with Pizza Rolls

- Marinara or vegan ranch dipping sauce
