Instructions

For the Crust

  1. In a large bowl, mix dry ingredients.
  2. Add water and oil and stir until the dough comes together. If the dough stays a little dry, you may need to add additional water, by the tablespoon until all the flour has been incorporated.
  3. Knead dough on a lightly floured counter top until smooth, 5-7 minutes.
  4. Place in a greased bowl in a warm place, and cover until you are ready to roll out the crust.
  5. (This can be done up to a day ahead of time. Simply refrigerate the crust and remove from the refrigerator 1 hour before you plan to roll it out.)

For the Basic Pizza Sauce

  1. Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl.
  2. (The sauce can be made ahead and refrigerated up to a week before using.)

For the Mummy

  1. Pre-heat oven to 400F.
  2. On a lightly floured surface, roll your crust into an 18 inch diameter circle. Transfer rolled dough onto a piece of greased aluminum foil the size of your baking sheet. (It is ok if the dough hangs over the sides of the foil, this is just to make transferring the calzone to the pan easier.)
  3. Dividing your dough into thirds, cut 1 – 1 ½ inch thick strips towards the center from the two sides, leaving a 6” wide un-cut band down the center of the crust.
  4. Spread your sauce over the center section, leaving 2 inches at the top and bottom un-sauced.
  5. Sprinkle your toppings on the pizza sauce, leaving a 1 inch band roughly ¼ of the way down from the top free of toppings. This will be your eye slit.
  6. To wrap the mummy, fold the un-sauced bottom up over the toppings. Begin folding each strip over the toppings, alternating sides, and brushing each strip with milk-wash before laying another strip down. (The milk will help the strips stick together and make the crust nice and golden brown.)
  7. As you continue from the toes up the mummy, stop when you reach the eye-slit area that you left free of toppings. Fold the top un-sauced portion down and continue wrapping the mummy from the head down.
  8. Once your reach the eye slit, be sure to leave a portion uncovered. This is where you will place your olive halves for the eyes.
  9. When the mummy is all wrapped, use the aluminum foil to lift the calzone onto your baking pan. Don't forget the eyes!
  10. Bake your mummy for 15-20 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the crust is golden brown.
  11. Remove from the oven and let set 3-5 minutes before serving.
  12. (If desired, you can make a double batch of pizza sauce and use the extra for dipping the calzone.)
