Easy Calzones
- 2 cup Flour
- 1 envelope Yeast
- 1/2 tsp Olive oil
- 1 tsp Honey
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 2 cup Grated mozzarella cheese (or Italian blend)
- 1 cup Pizza sauce
- 1 cup Any pizza topping(s) you enjoy
- 1 Egg
- In a large mixing bowl add honey and very warm water.
- Then add in yeast packet, stir, and let it rest for 2 min.
- Add in 1 cup of flour and stir with a spatula.
- Now mix in salt and olive oil.
- Once mixed thoroughly add in the second cup of flour.
- For the last half cup of flour, kneed it on a floured countertop until the dough is not sticky.
- Cover the bowl with a dry towel and let the dough sit for 1 hour in a dry, warm place.
- In the mean time you can prepare/cook ingredients for the pizza that may need cooking such as onions, sausage, or bacon!
- Make the dough into a ball and put into a bowl.
- The bowl should have oil on the bottoms and sides.
- Now cover the top of the dough with olive oil.
- Now that the hour is done, take the towel off and punch down the dough to deflate it a little.
- Divide the dough into four equal parts and form a ball.
- On a well powdered surface, take one dough ball and roll out to an 8 inch circle.
- Add pizza sauce to half of the circle making sure to leave a 1/2 inch space without sauce along the edge.
- Now add the toppings to the area with pizza sauce, and top with a generous heap of cheese.
- Now time to fold over the other half of the dough on top of the cheese and toppings.
- It should look like a swollen half circle.
- Now take the edge and fold over in half inch pieces to create a swirl effect on the edge of the calzone.
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- Now repeat with the other 3 dough balls.
- Wipe an egg wash (egg +water) on top of all of the calzones.
- Top calzones with a dash of salt and pepper.
- Put into oven until golden brown or about 20 min.
- Serve with a side of pizza sauce or Parmesan!
- Yum yum!
