Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb pizza dough
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup pepperoni slices
  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, mix ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan, oregano, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  3. Divide pizza dough into 4 portions. Roll each into an 8-inch circle on a floured surface.

  5. Fold dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape. Seal the edges by pressing with a fork. Brush tops with beaten egg.
