2. Prepare the Tray: Roll the dough into a rectangle large enough to cover the base and sides of a rectangular baking tray. Press the dough into the tray, creating individual sections by gently pressing or pinching the dough into separate compartments.
3. Add the Sausage: Cut the sausages into small round pieces and place one piece into each section.
4. Add the Filling: Spoon a little pizza sauce or ketchup into each section. Add a piece of cheddar or processed cheese, then sprinkle with mozzarella, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder. Add chopped peppers or onions if desired.
5. Seal & Brush: Fold or secure the dough around the fillings, making sure the individual sections are sealed. Brush the tops generously with beaten egg.
6. Bake: Bake at 375β400Β°F (190β200Β°C) for about 20β25 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
7. Slice & Serve: Let cool for a few minutes, then separate into bite-sized squares. Serve warm with ketchup or your favorite dipping sauce.
