Easy Pepperoni Bread

This stuff is freaking awesome if I do say so myself.

I have yet to find someone who doesn't like my famous pepperoni bread. It's gone before the end of the night. Plus its super easy to make.

I started making this about five years ago before we had kids. It was during our drunken partying social gathering days. How does the myth go, "eat bread when you drink because it will help soak up the alcohol"?

Now that my days consist of tea parties, Toy Story and play dough, I now use this recipe for playdates, Tupperware parties and snack time.

Different setting, same end result. Success.

I'm giving you the recipe for one Pizza Bread loaf. However I normally make three at a time.

You will need one Pillsbury French loaf (straight from the fridge, cold is easier to work with), shredded mozzarella cheese, pepperoni slices and one beaten egg. To make three loafs I buy three of the French loafs and two bags of pepperoni.

Start by unrolling the french loaf. This is why you want it to be cold. Sometimes it wants to stick together and it's hard to find the crease where to start unrolling. Lay it on a lightly floured surface. Baste one side with beaten egg, just enough to wet the top, but don't leave puddles.

Down the center of the dough line up pepperoni in rows of three. Sprinkle cheese over the row.

Fold one side over the middle and once again line up pepperoni and sprinkle cheese. Fold over the last side to seal the loaf closed.

Cook on a greased cookie sheet according to the temperature and time on the French Loaf directions or until golden on top.

Cool on rack and slice. Serve with pizza sauce, but we have always eaten it plain.
