Homemade Stromboli
Homemade Stromboli is a rolled Italian-style savory bread filled with layers of pepperoni, salami, prosciutto, and mozzarella cheese on pizza dough, baked until golden and topped with Parmesan and oregano. The preparation involves sealing the dough tightly to encase the fillings and baking until the crust is crisp and the cheese melts, delivering a hearty, flavorful hand-held meal.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoon flour for dusting work surface
- 12 oz pizza dough homemade or purchased
- 2 tablespoon butter melted, unsalted
- ½ cup Parmesan Cheese grated, plus more for topping, Primo Taglio® brand
- 6 oz pepperoni sliced
- 6 oz salami sliced, Primo Taglio® brand
- 3 oz prosciutto thinly sliced, Primo Taglio® brand
- 6 oz. mozzarella cheese whole milk, shredded
- 1 large egg lightly beaten
- t tablespoon oregano dried
- 2 cups marinara sauce warmed
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Lightly dust work surface with flour. Use a rolling pin to roll the dough out to a 10 x 13-inch rectangle, with the long side facing you.
- Brush the melted butter all over the dough. Sprinkle ½ cup of the Parmesan cheese over the butter. Add a layer of the pepperoni, overlapping each slice slightly, leaving a 1-inch border along the edges of the dough. Then add a layer of the salami over the pepperoni, also slightly overlapping. Top with sliced prosciutto and then cheese.
- Use your hands to start rolling the dough inwards, lengthwise. Continue rolling until the other side of the dough is reached. Carefully pinch the edges to form a seal. Also, use your hands to fold in and seal both ends of the stromboli.
- Transfer to a baking sheet, seam side down. Cut three diagonal slits in the top of the stromboli. Brush the egg wash all over the tops and sides and then sprinkle 1 tablespoon of Parmesan cheese and the dried oregano over the top. Place in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until golden on top.
- Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes. Use a serrated knife to cut the stromboli into 1-inch slices. Place on serving platter and serve with warmed marinara sauce.
Notes
- The blend of pepperoni, salami, prosciutto, and whole milk mozzarella creates a rich filling, but you can add deli ham or provolone cheese as alternatives.
- Homemade pizza dough enhances the stromboli, though high-quality store-bought dough is a good substitute.
- Serve the stromboli warm for best texture and flavor, and pair it with homemade or store-bought marinara sauce for dipping.
- Leftover stromboli is enjoyable at room temperature, making it suitable for packed lunches or snacks.
