Ingredients
Scale
Roll-Ups Base
- 4 low-carb tortillas or flatbreads
Filling
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 12–16 pepperoni slices
- 1/3 cup low-carb pizza sauce
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
For Brushing
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or melted butter
Instructions
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Lay out your low-carb tortillas and spread a thin, even layer of low-carb pizza sauce on each one. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the sauce, then layer the pepperoni slices on top. Finish by sprinkling a light dusting of Italian seasoning over the filling.
- Roll Them Up Tightly: Starting from one edge, carefully and tightly roll each tortilla up, keeping all the filling inside. Secure with toothpicks if needed to keep the roll-ups intact during baking.
- Brush with Olive Oil: Lightly brush the outside of each roll-up with olive oil or melted butter to help them crisp up and achieve a golden, delicious finish in the oven.
- Bake Until Golden: Place the roll-ups on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese inside is melted and the outside is crispy and golden brown.
- Let Cool and Serve: Allow the roll-ups to cool for a few minutes before slicing or serving to avoid burns from hot cheese and to let the flavors settle perfectly.
Notes
- Use freshly shredded mozzarella cheese for better meltability and to avoid added starch.
- Don’t overfill the tortillas with sauce or toppings to prevent soggy roll-ups.
- Secure roll-ups with toothpicks to keep them from unraveling during baking.
- Watch oven temperature closely as it may vary—look for golden edges to avoid burning.
- Consider serving with extra low-carb pizza sauce or ranch dip to enhance the snack experience.
