To start, preheat your oven to 425 degrees F. Roll out your pizza dough into a large circle, about 1/4 inch thick. Spread the pizza sauce over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese and sliced pepperoni over the sauce.
Fold the dough over the filling, pressing the edges together to seal. Brush the top of the calzone with the beaten egg. Use a sharp knife to cut a few slits in the top of the calzone to allow steam to escape.
Bake the calzone for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
