Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Set the oven to 190°C to ensure even baking temperature.
  • Roll the pizza dough into a 30×40 cm rectangle on a lightly floured surface, making sure to keep the thickness even.
  • Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly across the dough, leaving a 2.5 cm border around the edges.
  • Arrange the sliced pepperoni over the mozzarella in an even layer.
  • Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning over the pepperoni layer.
  • Tightly roll the dough from the long side, tucking in the ends as you go. Make sure the seam is on the underside.
  • Place the rolled dough seam-side down on a greased baking tray. Brush the surface with the beaten egg for a glossy, golden finish.
  • Cut small diagonal slits along the top to allow steam to escape while baking.

Baking

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  • Allow it to cool for several minutes before slicing into portions.
  • Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping.

Notes

If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 175°C for about 10 minutes to keep the crust crispy.
