Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the pizza dough into a large rectangle, approximately 10x14 inches.
Spread the marinara sauce evenly over the surface of the dough, leaving about a 1-inch border on all sides.
Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, followed by an even layer of pepperoni slices. Add the remaining mozzarella cheese on top.
Sprinkle Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder evenly across the filling.
Carefully roll the dough into a tight log, starting at one of the longer edges. Pinch the seam and ends to seal the dough completely.
Place the rolled dough seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Use a sharp knife to make 3–4 shallow slashes across the top of the dough for ventilation.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to make an egg wash. Brush the top and sides of the Stromboli with the egg wash to create a golden crust.
Bake the Stromboli in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let the Stromboli cool for about 5 minutes before slicing into 1-inch thick pieces.
Serve warm with additional marinara sauce for dipping, if desired.
