These Easy Ham & Cheese Pretzel Roll-Ups are a quick and delicious snack made with refrigerated pizza dough, deli ham, and cheddar cheese, baked to golden perfection with a classic pretzel crust. Perfect for potlucks, game days, or a fun weeknight treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (13.8 oz) refrigerated pizza dough
  • 8 ounces deli ham, thinly sliced
  • 4 ounces cheddar cheese, cut into thin strips
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • Coarse sea salt or pretzel salt
  • Optional: 1/4 cup melted butter
  • Optional: Everything bagel seasoning

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
  2. Lightly flour your work surface. Open the can of refrigerated pizza dough and unroll it onto the floured surface.
  3. Using a rolling pin, gently roll the dough into a rectangle about 12×8 inches, about 1/4 inch thick.
  4. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut the dough into 8 equal strips, each about 1.5 inches wide and 8 inches long.
  5. Take one strip of dough and place 2-3 slices of ham along the length, leaving about 1/2 inch of dough exposed at one end. Place a strip of cheddar cheese on top of the ham.
  6. Starting at the end with the ham and cheese, tightly roll the dough up, tucking in the filling as you go. Pinch the exposed end to seal. Place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining strips.
  7. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and 1 tablespoon of water until well combined.
  8. Generously brush each roll-up with the egg wash, covering tops and sides completely.
  9. While the egg wash is still wet, sprinkle each roll-up with coarse sea salt or pretzel salt.
  10. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed up.
  11. Optional: Brush hot roll-ups with melted butter as soon as they come out of the oven.
  12. Let cool on the baking sheet for 2-3 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. Serve warm.

Notes

Don’t overfill the roll-ups to prevent bursting. Make sure to pinch seams well. For best results, use room temperature dough and don’t skip the egg wash.
