Ingredients

• 1 lb Pizza dough
• 6 oz Pepperoni slices
• 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 1 Egg
• 1 tbsp Water
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning
• 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
• 2 tbsp Parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 tbsp Flour (for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.

Step 2

Lightly flour your working surface and roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle, approximately 10x14 inches in size.

Step 3

Arrange the pepperoni slices evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border on all sides.

Step 4

Spread the shredded mozzarella cheese over the pepperoni in an even layer.

Step 5

Carefully roll the dough tightly from one long edge to the other, creating a log shape. Pinch the seam and ends closed to seal.

Step 6

Place the rolled dough seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 7

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash.

Step 8

Brush the egg wash evenly over the top and sides of the bread.

Step 9

Sprinkle the Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and grated Parmesan cheese over the top of the bread.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and cooked through.

Step 11

Allow the bread to cool for about 5 minutes before slicing into thick pieces.

Step 12

Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping, if desired, and enjoy!
