Italian Stromboli

Italian Stromboli 🍕✨

A crispy, golden-brown crust filled with layers of savory meats, gooey cheese, and zesty marinara sauce—this Italian Stromboli is the ultimate comfort food! Perfect for a family dinner or a party appetizer.

Ingredients:

1 lb pizza dough

½ cup marinara sauce

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

½ cup provolone cheese, sliced

¼ lb sliced pepperoni

¼ lb sliced salami

¼ lb sliced ham

1 tsp dried oregano

½ tsp garlic powder

1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese

1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions:

Preheat the Oven:

Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Assemble the Stromboli:

On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a large rectangle. Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce, leaving about 1 inch of space around the edges. Layer the mozzarella, provolone, pepperoni, salami, and ham evenly over the dough. Sprinkle with oregano and garlic powder.

Roll and Seal:

Carefully roll the dough into a log, tucking in the sides as you go to seal in the fillings. Place the Stromboli seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

Brush and Bake:

Brush the top with the beaten egg and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle grated Parmesan on top. Using a sharp knife, cut a few small slits on the surface to allow steam to escape. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

Serve:

Let the Stromboli cool slightly before slicing. Serve with extra marinara sauce for dipping and enjoy this cheesy, meaty delight! 🍽️
