Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a baking dish.
Prepare the rolls: Slice the Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally (keep them connected). Place the bottom half in the prepared dish.
Layer the fillings: Spread half of the marinara sauce over the rolls. Sprinkle half of the cheese, then add the pepperoni slices. Top with the remaining cheese and the rest of the sauce.
Add the top layer: Place the top half of the rolls back on.
Make the garlic butter topping: In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and Parmesan cheese. Brush this mixture generously over the tops of the rolls.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the tops are golden brown.
Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

Variations: Try adding cooked sausage, mushrooms, or bell peppers for extra flavor.
Make it vegetarian: Skip the pepperoni and add more veggies.
