Ingredients

• 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
• 1 packet Instant yeast
• 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Warm water
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 Egg
• 30 pieces Pepperoni slices
• 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 serving Egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine gluten-free all-purpose flour and xanthan gum. Stir in the instant yeast, sugar, and salt.

Step 2

Add warm water, olive oil, and the egg to the dry ingredients. Mix until a smooth dough forms. The dough will be sticky, which is normal for gluten-free recipes.

Step 3

Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rest in a warm place for about 15 minutes.

Step 4

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 5

Place the dough on a floured surface and divide it into 6 even portions. Shape each portion into a small rectangle, about 6x4 inches.

Step 6

Layer 5 slices of pepperoni and a few tablespoons of shredded mozzarella cheese on each piece of dough.

Step 7

Roll up the dough tightly from one of the shorter sides, tucking the ends in as you roll, to enclose the filling.

Step 8

Place the rolled dough seam side down on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 9

Brush the top of each roll with the egg wash. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and a pinch of dried oregano for added flavor.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.

Step 11

Allow the rolls to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy them warm for the best experience.
