Equipment

Ingredients
- 1 pound ground sausage
- 1 tube refrigerated pizza dough 13.8 oz.
- 2 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded 16 oz.
- 1 large egg beaten, for brushing on top of loaf
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside.
- Crumble and brown the sausage in a skillet over medium heat, until no longer pink. Drain, if desired.
- Open the tube of pizza dough onto the prepared baking sheet and straighten the edges into a rectangle. Sprinkle cooked sausage and Mozzarella cheese over the dough, leaving about 1-inch open along the edges. Roll up the dough jelly-roll or cinnamon-roll style, crimping the seam closed and sealing and tucking the ends under. Make sure the bread is seam-side down on the baking sheet. Brush the loaf with beaten egg.
- Bake in preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the bread is cooked through. Allow loaf to rest 10 minutes before slicing.
