Ingredients
Scale
For the Dough
- 1 batch of pizza dough (about 12 oz)
Fillings
- 1/2 cup cooked meats (such as pepperoni, sausage, ham, or salami), chopped
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup mixed vegetables (such as bell peppers, onions, mushrooms), diced
- Optional: 1/4 cup marinara sauce or pizza sauce
- Optional: Italian seasoning or garlic powder, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the bread to a golden perfection.
- Prepare Dough: Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface into a rectangle approximately 12 by 8 inches.
- Add Fillings: Evenly spread the chopped meats, shredded cheese, and diced vegetables over the dough, leaving about an inch border along the edges. If desired, add a thin layer of marinara or pizza sauce and sprinkle Italian seasoning or garlic powder.
- Roll Dough: Carefully roll the dough from one long edge to the other, creating a tight log with the fillings enclosed inside.
- Seal and Shape: Pinch the edges together to seal the dough and tuck the ends underneath to prevent fillings from leaking during baking.
- Bake: Place the rolled dough seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and cooked through.
- Cool and Slice: Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Slice into pieces and serve warm.
Notes
- You can customize the fillings based on your preference or use leftover pizza toppings.
- Ensure the dough edges are sealed well to avoid leakage during baking.
- Use a pizza stone for a crispier crust if desired.
- For a vegetarian version, omit the meats and add more vegetables and cheese.
- Serve with marinara sauce for dipping.
