Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Lay 1 puff pastry sheet flat on a work surface, and spread the top with the pizza sauce to the edges. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning to taste, then top with the mozzarella, Parmesan, and pepperoni (if using).
  3. Place the second puff pastry sheet on top, and gently press down. Slice into 9 strips (about 1 inch thick) using a pizza cutter or knife. Twist each strip, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush the pizza twists evenly with the beaten egg.
  4. Bake for 18–22 minutes, until the pizza twists are golden brown. Remove from the oven. Sprinkle with the basil, and garnish with the grated Parmesan. If desired, garnish with hot honey and red pepper flakes.
  5. Serve warm with more pizza sauce, ranch, or your favorite dip.
