I love to make this for us to have on game day! If you are feeding more than 2-4, I would double this 🙂

Ingredients
- 1 roll refrigerated french bread dough see notes; can use frozen

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Roll out bread dough and sprinkle with mozzarella and parmesan cheeses. Place pepperoni (as much as desired) on top of cheese.
- Carefully roll the bread dough into a cylinder shape (see notes, I just fold in thirds). Pinch ends and top to seal. Brush top and sides of loaf with egg wash. If desired, top loaf with cheese and/or Italian seasoning. Make a few diagonal slices on top of loaf for air to escape while cooking. Optionally, you can brush an egg wash on the top for more even browning.
- Bake at 350 for approximately 20 minutes (see notes). Remove from oven and let cool for five minutes before slicing.
Recipe Notes
Stacy's Notes: The original recipe called for either a can of refrigerated dough or a loaf of frozen dough (like a loaf of Rhodes brand bread dough). Just be sure to thaw your dough out first 🙂
I usually use turkey pepperoni, although it's obviously better with regular pepperoni! Use lots of mozzarella and Parmesan to make it extra gooey. I like to add the Italian seasoning, but the original recipe did not call for any.
This loaf takes 22-23 minutes to bake in my oven. Check yours starting at 20 minutes and pull it out when it's nice and golden.
Enjoy!
