Step-by-Step Instructions for Quick and Cheesy Pizza Pinwheels
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Roll out the pizza dough into a 10x14 inch rectangle on a floured surface, about ¼ inch thick.
  3. Spread pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
  4. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese, followed by pepperoni, Parmesan, oregano, and garlic powder over the sauce.
  5. Starting from one edge, tightly roll the dough into a log and slice into 12 equal pinwheels.
  6. Transfer the pinwheels to the baking sheet, spacing them apart, and brush with olive oil.
  7. Bake for 13-15 minutes until golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.
  8. Let them cool slightly and serve warm with dipping sauces like marinara or ranch.
