Save this recipe on:

Golden and cheesy with a saucy pepperoni surprise inside, these Pizza Burritos are everything you love about pizza rolled up into a handheld pocket of joy. They combine the classic flavors of a pepperoni pizza with the convenience and fun of a burrito wrap. Whether you’re hosting game night or just need a creative weeknight dinner idea, this fusion recipe is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.

Each bite is loaded with melty mozzarella, savory marinara, crispy-edged pepperoni, and a perfectly seasoned tortilla shell topped with shredded parmesan. It’s a comforting, satisfying twist that delivers the full pizzeria experience right from your oven.

What Kind of Tortilla Should I Use?

For a sturdy, non-leaky wrap, use large flour tortillas (burrito size). These are flexible enough to fold without tearing but substantial enough to hold all the cheesy, saucy goodness inside. Warm them slightly before rolling to prevent cracking.

Ingredients for the Pizza Burritos

• Flour Tortillas: A soft yet sturdy base to roll everything up without falling apart.
• Mozzarella Cheese: For that classic gooey, stretchy pizza texture.
• Pepperoni Slices: Brings the salty, spiced bite that makes this feel like a true pizza.
• Marinara Sauce: Adds the essential tangy tomato element in every bite.
• Parmesan Cheese: Sprinkled on top for a crispy, golden finish.
• Italian Seasoning: A blend of oregano, basil, and thyme to infuse that unmistakable pizza aroma.

How To Make the Pizza Burritos

Step 1: Preheat and Prep

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Step 2: Build the Burritos

Lay each tortilla flat and spread a thin layer of marinara sauce in the center. Top with mozzarella cheese and pepperoni slices. Be generous, but leave space around the edges for folding.

Step 3: Fold and Seal

Fold the sides over, then roll tightly from bottom to top like a burrito. Place seam side down on the baking sheet.

Step 4: Top and Bake

Brush the tops lightly with olive oil or cooking spray. Sprinkle parmesan and Italian seasoning over each burrito. Bake for 15–20 minutes until golden brown and crisp.

Step 5: Serve Warm

Let cool slightly, then slice in half and serve with extra marinara for dipping.
