  2. Unroll the crescent dough and gently separate it into 8 triangles. For easier shaping, press each triangle into a small rectangular form by sealing the perforated edges.
  3. Place a teaspoon of pizza sauce in the center of each dough piece. Sprinkle with oregano and garlic powder.
  4. Top each with a small portion of shredded mozzarella and 3 slices of pepperoni.
  5. Fold the dough over the filling, forming a triangular pocket. Pinch the edges to seal completely, ensuring no cheese escapes during baking.
  6. Arrange the filled pastries on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush with melted butter or olive oil for a golden finish.
  7. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 12 minutes or until golden brown and puffed.
  8. Optionally, sprinkle with grated Parmesan or Pecorino Romano immediately after removing from the oven.
  9. Let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with extra sauce for dipping.
