Prepare the Dough
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface into a large circle, about 12 inches in diameter.

Fill the Calzone
On one half of the dough, layer the shredded mozzarella cheese and pepperoni slices. Leave a small border around the edge.

Seal the Calzone
Fold the other half of the dough over the filling and press the edges together to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative touch.

Brush with Garlic Butter
In a small bowl, mix the melted butter and minced garlic. Brush this mixture over the top of the calzone.

Place the calzone on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
