How to make Savory Turkey pepperoni Pizza Chips
Step 1: Prepare the oven and baking sheet
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. This prevents sticking and makes cleanup a breeze.
Step 2: Prepare the dough
Unroll the crescent roll dough on the prepared baking sheet. Pinch the seams together to form one large rectangle.
Step 3: Add the sauce and toppings
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the pizza sauce, followed by the quartered turkey pepperoni slices. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, dried oregano, and garlic powder. Add red pepper flakes if desired.
Step 4: Bake the chips
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. For a different flavor profile, these pizza roll ups may fit the bill!
Step 5: Cool and serve
Let cool slightly before cutting into chip-sized pieces. Serve immediately and enjoy these Turkey pepperoni Pizza Chips!
Tips for Success
- For extra crispy chips, bake for a few minutes longer, watching carefully to avoid burning.
- Ensure the crescent roll dough is cold before unrolling to prevent it from becoming too sticky.
- Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet. Bake in batches if necessary, to ensure even cooking.
- Use good quality turkey pepperoni for the best flavor and texture.

These Turkey pepperoni Pizza Chips are perfect as a standalone snack or appetizer. Serve them with a side of marinara sauce or ranch dressing for dipping.

Storage & Reheating
