Meaty & Cheesy Calzone

Étape 1

Preheat the oven to 450°F. On a lightly flour-dusted work surface, lay the pizza dough. Sprinkle with a bit more flour & roll out into a large circle, about a 1/4 inch thick. Transfer the pizza dough to a parchment-lined sheet tray.

Étape 2

On one half of the rolled-dough, layer sliced ham, pepperoni slices & shredded mozzarella cheese. Add a few dollops of ricotta cheese & freshly ground pepper.

Étape 3

Fold the empty side of dough over the half with toppings, creating a half circle. Fold & press the outer edges to tightly seal the calzone.

Étape 4

In a small bowl, crack & beat the egg. (1 egg works up to 4 servings!)

Étape 5

Brush egg wash over the calzone, covering all the edges. Top with grated parmesan cheese then transfer it to the oven. Cut two small slits on top. Bake at 450°F for 20-25 min, until it's puffed up & the outside is golden.

Étape 6

When the calzone is cool enough to handle, slice it in half. Serve with marinara sauce for dipping. Enjoy!
