Crispy Mozzarella Cheese Roll

Instructions

  1. Prep:
    • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
    • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Assemble Rolls:
    • Place a mozzarella stick on a sheet of puff pastry.
    • If using, lay a slice of ham or prosciutto over the cheese.
    • Roll up tightly, sealing the edges by brushing with a little beaten egg.
    • Optional: Roll the assembled rolls in breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder/seasoning for extra crunch.
  3. Bake:
    • Place rolls seam-side down on the baking sheet.
    • Brush tops lightly with egg wash or oil for golden crispiness.
    • Bake 12–15 minutes, or until puff pastry is golden and crispy.
  4. Serve:
    • Let cool for 2–3 minutes (cheese will be very hot inside!).
    • Serve with marinara, ranch, or your favorite dipping sauce.

Tips & Variations

  • Add herbs: Sprinkle dried oregano or basil on top before baking.
  • Spicy version: Wrap cheese with a thin slice of pepperoni and add a pinch of chili flakes.
  • Cheese mix: Combine mozzarella with provolone or cheddar for a richer flavor.
  • Air fryer: Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 8–10 minutes for a crispier, faster version.
