Pepperoni Slices: Classic pizza topping; feel free to swap it out for veggies or other meats if desired.
Olive Oil: A drizzle on top adds crispiness; use extra virgin for richer flavor.
Dried Oregano: A sprinkle enhances the pizza flavor profile; don’t skip this step!
Parmesan Cheese: For that gourmet touch, sprinkle some grated Parmesan over the top before baking.

How to Make Baked Pizza Wraps
Preheat Your Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) and let it preheat while you prepare the wraps. The anticipation builds as you smell that warm air wafting through the kitchen.
Prepare Your Workstation: Lay out your tortillas flat on a clean surface. Grab the pizza sauce, cheese, pepperoni, and any additional toppings you want to include—this is where creativity shines!
Spread the Sauce Generously: Take a spoonful of pizza sauce and spread it evenly over each tortilla. Don’t be shy; this is where flavor begins!
Add Your Toppings: Layer on the shredded mozzarella cheese followed by pepperoni slices or any other goodies you’ve chosen. Remember that every bite should be loaded with flavor.
Roll Them Up Tight!: Carefully roll each tortilla from one end to another like you’re wrapping up a gift—you want them snug but not so tight that they explode during baking.
Brush with Olive Oil and Season: Place each wrapped roll seam-side down on a baking sheet. Drizzle olive oil over them and sprinkle with oregano and Parmesan cheese for extra pizzazz.
Bake Until Golden Brown: Pop those beauties into the oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them—they should look irresistible when done!
Now that you have mastered making Baked Pizza Wraps, enjoy tearing into these flavorful treats! Serve them with extra pizza sauce on the side for dipping, because let’s face it: life is better with more sauce!
