In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt.
Add warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients, and mix until a rough dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Punch down the risen dough and roll it out on a floured surface into a large rectangle, approximately 12x16 inches.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce, followed by the pepperoni slices.
Sprinkle Italian seasoning and garlic powder over the toppings.
Starting from the long edge, tightly roll up the dough into a log. Pinch the seam to seal it.
Using a sharp knife, slice the log into 1-inch thick spirals and place them cut-side up on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
To freeze for Oamc (Once A Month Cooking), arrange the uncooked spirals on a tray, freeze until solid, then transfer to an airtight container or freezer bag.
To bake immediately, place the spirals in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
To bake from frozen, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake the spirals for 18-22 minutes, or until heated through and golden brown.
Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your homemade pizza spirals!
