Instructions
Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2: Roll out the dough and cut into rectangles (about 3×4 inches each).
Step 3: Spread a small spoonful of pizza sauce in the center of half the rectangles, leaving a border around the edges.
Step 4: Add a sprinkle of mozzarella cheese and a few mini pepperoni if using. Top with a pinch of Italian seasoning.
Step 5: Place a second piece of dough over the filled side and press the edges to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges.
Step 6: Brush the tops with beaten egg and place on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 7: Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly.
Step 8: Let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with dried basil or parsley if desired.
