Easy Pepperoni Bread

Ingredients

  • 1 (1 pound) loaf frozen bread dough
  • 1 (8 ounce) package sliced pepperoni sausage
  • 1 (6 ounce) package shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 tablespoon dried minced onion flakes
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 1/2 tablespoon dried basil leaves
  • 1/2 tablespoon dried oregano

Directions

    1. First, allow frozen bread dough to thaw approximately 8 hours, or overnight, in the refrigerator. And then, place dough in a large, lightly greased bowl. Place bowl in a warm location, and allow dough to rise until doubled (2 to 3 hours). Punch down dough.
    2. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
    3. Next, on a lightly greased, large baking sheet, roll dough into an approximately 12×18 inch rectangle. After that, brush dough lightly with olive oil. Sprinkle with basil, onion flakes and oregano. Layer with pepperoni to within a half inch of the edges. Top with mozzarella cheese.
    4. Beginning with the longest edge, roll dough into a thin cylinder and seal seam, and then, glaze with egg.
    5. Lastly, bake in the preheated oven 35 minutes, or until golden brown. Cut into bite sized pieces to serve.
