Ingredients
- Dough
- 16 ounces (454 grams) all - purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 package (2 1/4 teaspoons) active dry yeast
- 2/3 cup (160 ml) warm water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
2. Filling
- 8 ounces (227 grams) mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 4 ounces (113 grams) ricotta cheese
- 2 ounces (57 grams) pepperoni, sliced
- 1/2 cup (50 grams) grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup (30 grams) chopped fresh basil
- 1/4 cup (30 grams) chopped fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Topping
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 tablespoon water
Steps
- Prepare the dough (0:00 - 0:15 minutes): In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, sugar, and yeast. Add the warm water and olive oil. Stir until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 - 7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 - 1.5 hours, or until it doubles in size.
- Make the filling (0:15 - 0:30 minutes): In a medium bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese, ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, pepperoni, basil, parsley, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- Assemble the Calzone (0:30 - 0:45 minutes): Preheat the Skycorps Pizza Oven to 500°F (260°C). Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 6 - 8 - inch (15 - 20 cm) circle on a floured surface. Spoon about 1/4 cup of the filling onto one - half of each dough circle, leaving a 1 - inch (2.5 cm) border. Fold the other half of the dough over the filling and press the edges together to seal. Crimp the edges with a fork.
- Bake the Calzone (0:45 - 0:55 minutes): In a small bowl, whisk together the beaten egg and water. Brush the mixture over the top of each Calzone. Place the Calzones on the preheated pizza stone in the Skycorps Pizza Oven. Bake for 10 - 12 minutes, or until golden brown.
