Ham & Cheese Roll-Ups Recipe


Servings: Makes about 12 roll-ups


Ingredients


1 pound pizza dough (homemade or store-bought, brought to room temperature for easier handling)


12 slices smoked ham (thinly sliced for easy rolling)


1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese (or experiment with Gruyere, Swiss, or smoked provolone for different flavors)


Preparation


Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper for a non-stick surface.

Roll Out Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle, aiming for about 1/4-inch thickness. This will be your base for the roll-ups.


Add Ham and Cheese: Lay the ham slices evenly across the dough, leaving a small border around the edges to ensure a tight roll. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the ham, creating a layer of melty goodness.


Roll It Up: Carefully roll the dough from one of the long edges, similar to making a jelly roll. Ensure the roll is tight so the fillings stay snug within.


Slice: With a sharp knife, cut the log into 1-inch sections. This will form your individual roll-ups. Place them cut side up on the prepared baking sheet.


Bake: Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the roll-ups are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.


Cool and Serve: Allow the roll-ups to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving to let the cheese set slightly.


Variations & Tips:


Spice It Up: Incorporate red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce into the cheese for guests who appreciate a spicy twist.


Vegetarian Option: For a meat-free variation, replace the ham with sautéed spinach and mushrooms, ensuring they’re well-drained to avoid soggy dough.


Garlic Butter Finish: For an extra layer of flavor, brush the roll-ups with melted butter mixed with garlic powder before baking.


Resting Dough: If you’re working with refrigerated dough, let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before rolling out. This makes it easier to handle and shape.
