Instructions
- Prep. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or coat with olive oil. Set aside. Preheat the oven to 475º F.
- Portion Calzone Dough. Portion the pizza dough into portions based on the desired size of finished calzones, 8 for small calzones and 4 for large calzones. Roll the dough into a circle.
- Add Calzone Filling. Add the filling to the rolled dough in half of the circle, leaving about 1/2-inch of the rim or the circle without any fillings.
- Seal the Calzone. Fold the empty half of the dough over the filled half of the dough. Crimp the edges tightly to seal the dough. Using a sharp knife, cut slits in the top of the dough to allow steam to escape while baking.
- Bake. Transfer the calzone to the baking sheet. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with Parmesan and Stone House Seasoning, if using. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 minutes for small calzones and about 20 minutes for large calzones.
