Ultimate Deluxe Stromboli
Picture this: a golden-brown dough, ooey-gooey cheese, and a medley of toppings, all wrapped up in a delightful swirl. It’s like a pizza got a promotion and decided to dress up for a fancy party. So, let’s dive into the goodness!
Ingredients
You’ll need the following tasty items to create your masterpiece:
- 1 lb pizza dough (store-bought or homemade – we don’t judge!)
- 1 cup marinara sauce (because we need to be saucy)
- 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese (for that melty goodness)
- ½ cup sliced pepperoni (because who can say no to pepperoni?)
- ½ cup diced green bell pepper (for a pop of color)
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese (the sprinkle of elegance)
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning (let’s get herb-y)
- 1 egg (for an egg-ceptional wash)
Instructions
Now that we’ve gathered our ingredients, it’s time to get this stromboli party started!
- Preheat your oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) – it’s time to get warm and cozy!
- Roll it out: On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle. Make it a bit larger than your expectations, if you can!
- Spread the sauce: Spoon the marinara sauce across the dough, leaving a little space at the edges. Let’s not overdo it!
- Add your toppings: Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, green bell pepper, Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning. Think of it as a cheesy garden!
- Roll it up: Starting from one long side, tightly roll the dough up. Like rolling a sleeping bag, but way tastier!
- Seal the edges: Pinch the seams and tuck the ends under to keep all that filling inside. No leaks here!
- Egg wash: Beat the egg and brush it over the top of your stromboli. This gives it a shiny, golden complexion!
- Bake it: Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and pop it in the oven for 25-30 minutes until golden brown. Time to be patient!
- Cool and slice: Once it’s out, let it cool for a few minutes. Then, slice it up and admire your work before devouring it!
And there you have it! The Ultimate Deluxe Stromboli that will make all your friends drool and come running for a slice. Who knew rolling dough could be this much fun? Enjoy your culinary success!
