Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C). Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper.

Roll one sheet of puff pastry into a 10×12-inch rectangle. Spread half of the tomato sauce over the puff pastry sheet all the way to the edges. Evenly top the tomato sauce with half of the mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, pepperoni, basil, and oregano. Sprinkle red pepper flakes over the top to taste, if desired.

Starting with the long end towards you, tightly roll the puff pastry into a long log, sealing the edge well. Repeat this process with the remaining ingredients so you have two puff pastry logs.

Place the logs on a sheet pan, cover, and freeze for 20-30 minutes. (Alternatively, refrigerate the logs for 30 minutes or up to 3 days.) Once the logs are firm, use a sharp knife to cut them into 1/2-inch slices, about 20-22 pinwheels each. Line the pinwheels 2-3 inches apart on the prepared sheet pans. Refrigerate any remaining pinwheels for later.

In a small bowl, whisk the egg with 1 tablespoon of water to make an egg wash. Using a pastry brush, brush the tops and sides of the pinwheels with the egg wash. Bake for 16-18 minutes, until the scrolls are crisp and golden-brown. Repeat with the remaining scrolls. Serve warm with extra tomato sauce.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Chill Your Puff Pastry Between Steps 🧊
Keep puff pastry cold between rolling and filling to maintain flakiness and prevent the butter layers from melting, resulting in superior texture and rise during baking.
Seal Seams with Egg Wash 🥚
Brush the seam where you roll up the pastry with egg wash before baking to create a tight seal that prevents filling from leaking and ensures golden, cohesive scrolls.
Don't Overfill Your Scrolls 🛑
Use a light hand with filling—about 1-2 tablespoons per scroll—to prevent the puff pastry from bursting and ensure even cooking and ideal texture throughout.
Toast Oregano Before Assembly 🌿
Lightly toast the oregano in a dry pan for 30 seconds before sprinkling to intensify its flavor and prevent it from becoming bitter during baking.
Freeze Before Baking for Make-Ahead Success ❄️
Freeze assembled scrolls for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 days) before baking—this prevents them from unrolling and creates an even crispier exterior with better structure.
