Mmm Calzone’s

Dough:
This makes enough pizza dough for a nice large Calzone.

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups water
• 1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 3 3/4 cups bread flour
• 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
• 1 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast

Preparation:

Add ingredients to your bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Choose the dough cycle.
Remove dough and brush with a little olive oil or vegetable oil, then let the crust rise for at least 10 to 15 minutes.

Calzone Ingredients:

• pizza dough, (about one pound, thawed if frozen).
• flour for the work surface.
• 1 cup ricotta.
• 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded mozzarella.
• 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan.
• 1 pepper chopped.
• 1 onion (I like to use a nice red onion, adds a sweet flavor).
• 4 ounces salami, roughly chopped (I went ahead and bought the sliced salami).
• 2 tablespoons oil.
• 1 14- to 16-ounce jar pasta sauce (or use tomato paste, if you want a thicker, not so runny sauce).

Directions

1. Heat oven to 400° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
2. Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a 7-inch round and transfer to the baking sheet.
3. In a bowl, combine the ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan, and salami. Dividing evenly, spoon the mixture over half of each round, leaving a ½-inch border.
4. Using your fingers, wet the border with water. Fold the uncovered side of the dough over the filling and press the edges to seal.
5. Brush the tops of the calzones with the oil and bake until golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve with the warm pasta sauce on the side.
