# Ingredient List:

→ Dough and Toppings

01 - 1 package refrigerated pizza dough (approximately 13.8 ounces)
02 - 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
03 - 1/2 cup sliced pepperoni
04 - 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
05 - 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
06 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
07 - 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

→ Finishing

08 - 1 egg, beaten
09 - Marinara sauce, for dipping

# Preparation Steps:

01 - Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a large rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
03 - Sprinkle shredded mozzarella evenly over the dough, leaving a small border along the edges.
04 - Distribute sliced pepperoni evenly over the mozzarella layer.
05 - Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and crushed red pepper flakes evenly over the toppings.
06 - Starting from a long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log, keeping fillings inside. Pinch seams to seal and trim excess dough if needed.
07 - Slice the log into 1-inch pieces and arrange cut side up on the prepared baking sheet.
08 - Brush the tops with beaten egg to promote a golden finish during baking.
09 - Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes until puffed and golden brown.
10 - Let the roll-ups cool slightly before serving. Offer with warm marinara sauce for dipping.

# Supplementary Details:

01 - Allow the dough to reach room temperature for easier rolling and to prevent tearing.
02 - For extra crispiness, let the roll-ups rest for a few minutes before removing from the baking sheet.
