Servings: 6 people
Ingredients
- 1 ball Pizza Dough
- 1 tbsp Flour
- 1 lb Ham deli meat - any flavor will work!
- 3/4 lb Cheese American works best for melting
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil
- 1 pat Butter Melted
- 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
- 1/2 tsp Parsley
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 Degrees F
Preparing the Dough
- Put olive oil on baking sheet and swirl around well to cover entire pan - best to put a ziplock bag on your hand to swirl the olive oil around.
- Next, sprinkle flour around pizza dough evenly so that you can handle the dough without it sticking to your hands.
- Stretch out the dough to form a rectangle that will cover the baking sheet.
- Once the dough has stabilized in the pan, you can begin making the calzone.
Adding the Filling
- Fold a piece of ham in half and place it at the top of the dough, on one side of the dough, leaving approx 1/2" on the side.
- Next, place the cheese slice on top of the ham about 1/2" - 1" down from the top of the ham.
- Repeat ham and cheese placement until you have covered the entire length of the dough.
- Fold over the empty dough side over the ham/cheese side and press the edges together so they are sealed around the entire calzone.
- Brush melted butter on top of calzone.
- Sprinkle parsley, onion powder, and garlic powder on top of the calzone.
- Bake in preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
- Once cooked, remove from oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes. Calzone will be extremely hot.
- ENJOY!
