Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Roll out the whole wheat pizza dough on a floured surface.

Cut the dough into circles using a large cookie cutter or a bowl.

Spread a spoonful of tomato sauce on one half of each circle.

Add mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, bell peppers, onions, and spinach on top of the sauce.

Fold the dough over to create a pocket and seal the edges by pressing with a fork.

Brush the tops with olive oil for a golden finish.

Place the pockets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
