Ingredients

  • 1 batch pizza dough, homemade or store-bought

  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce

  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

  • 8 slices salami

  • 5-6 slices deli honey ham

  • 12-16 slices pepperoni

  • 1 large egg, beaten

  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Roll out pizza dough into a 12×18-inch rectangle.
  • Spread pizza sauce over dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
  • Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese, salami, ham, and pepperoni.
  • Brush edges of dough with egg wash.
  • Roll up dough, starting from the long side.
  • Pinch ends of dough together to seal.
  • Place stromboli on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Brush top of stromboli with egg wash.
  • Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and garlic powder.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Let stromboli cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • To make sure your stromboli is evenly cooked, cut it into slices before baking. This will help the heat to distribute evenly throughout the dish.
  • If you are using store-bought pizza dough, make sure to let it come to room temperature before rolling it out. This will make it easier to work with.
  • To prevent the stromboli from splitting open while baking, brush the edges with egg wash. This will help to seal the dough together.
  • Serve stromboli immediately after baking for the best flavor and texture.
