Instructions

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle about ¼ inch thick.
Evenly sprinkle shredded mozzarella over the dough, layer with sliced pepperoni, and sprinkle with Italian seasoning.
Roll the dough tightly from one end to form a log shape and pinch the seams closed.
Place seam-side down on the baking sheet, brush with olive oil, and make small slits on top for steam release.
Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown, then let cool slightly before slicing.

Notes

For extra cheesiness, mix in provolone or cheddar cheese.
Feel free to add bell peppers or mushrooms for additional flavor.
Leftovers can be stored wrapped in plastic in the fridge for up to three days.
