  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • Divide the dough into 8 equal-sized balls, approximately 75g each.
  • Roll each dough ball into a rectangle roughly 1/4 inch thick.
  • Apply 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce to the center of each rectangle, leaving a 1/2 inch border.
  • Distribute mozzarella cheese and chopped turkey pepperoni evenly among the 8 rectangles.
  • Fold the dough over the filling and use a fork to crimp the edges tightly, ensuring no air pockets remain.
  • Brush the tops of the pockets with the beaten egg wash and sprinkle with oregano and garlic powder.
  • Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
