Why this recipe works
Fast finger food with crispy dough edge
Too much sauce is the most common reason for raw, soft pizza pinwheels. A thin layer is enough to season the dough. Finely grated, rather dry cheese remains better in the roll than moist mozzarella in large pieces. The pizza pinwheels need to be removed in the basket because the dough still works.
